much quietness
« on: November 20, 2010, 14:05:15 »
hi, i'm wanting to make my exhaust less loud and harsh and vibraty. it is a britfart pattern system first fitted 2 years back. it does not leak but it is very buzzy all be it at a low pitch tone. would a new one from a different company be any quieter or would a wrap make this one better.

all thoughts welcome.

Yes and yes.  Check the mount rubers are in good nick and not too hard.  You can definitley kill the radiated noise with some glass fibre exhaust wrap or perhaps just by adding some weight (a cople iof exhaust clamps) to kill the harmonics.
