Cheap low flow muffler\resonator?

[homerj1]

I will be running 1.6td  in my mk1 Jetta, with a bigger exhaust dia ( not sure of size 2 inch +) all the way back.

Need to put on a muffler/resonator to pass inspection. Also found that my aaz with straight pipe and no cat. was a bit too loud\tractory).
On the other hand my 98 tdi with just a cat sounds nice.

So I'm looking for that sweet sound combo that won't restrict turbo spool up too much, but at the same time, not sound like cousin bob has arrived in his Fordson Major tractor,






 ready to pull the tree stumps.

 I searched the forum, and came up with a bit of info.

Am wondering what others are using?

also was looking at this page, anything here work:

Had a couple of these laying around, pretty happy.

I put one [of those] on my 1.6 TD when my "straight pipe with an open muffler" exhaust turned out to be too loud.

I like it. It would be great for your application. I hear no drone at cruise RPMs or at idle, but it's loud when I stomp on it.

Thrush turbo from McParts store on my NA 1.9, nothing else with rear turndown is pretty quiet. It was dirt cheap.

I want to do a glass pack or resonator only exhaust system with a dual side-pipe in front of the rear tires on my 84 Jetta.

I have a down pipe only exhaust right now, straight down from the turbo pointed at the ground. There is no excessive drone or loudness and my car has absolutely no sound deadening. Really makes the Honda/Cavalier boys angry when I haul on it.. with load on it in 4th it sounds like it is going to eat the ground (As my GF puts it ).

Turbo chargers are pretty good dynamic radial noise suppression devices. I'm running a glass-pack and a stack on my AAZ, and while you are aware of engine noise, it isn't bothersome or even really that loud. The glass pack looks like this inside

So I'm thinking it doesn't do a whole lot now that it's caked in diesel soot. It just takes care of a bit of drone.

I wouldn't recommend an exhaust that exits anywhere under the car forward of a location you plan work on. The black coating is nasty, and gets in everything. If I were doing a car, I would have a straight-pipe to the rear bumper and a down-turn at the end.

I had a K24 muffler on the mk2 jetta last engine. This one will be a T3...if you get it.

That is with my k03 hanging off the back, 2.5" straight down.. 11" of exhaust haha.

Dang it every post you make about that vnt makes me want mine on so bad.

Someone should start an exhaust Clip thread so everyone can post up their set up and others can get ideas for the sound they want.

I like this idea. We could sticky it and the ONLY replies would be posts of videos with the tone and what it is. Of course most online videos are hard to tell but we could get an idea.
