So I want to get 3' blast pipes, my car has a sr20det
And was wondering if I put a resonator would it make it sound alil more quieter since I know blast pipes are loud..

If u can help me what kind of resonator should I buy nothing expensive just something that would help it be alil quiet

my magic eightball says "yes"

vibrant performance makes pretty decent resonators. A friend just had a custom fabbed exhaust blast pipe-style with one muffler style resonator where the cat used to be. Its still pretty loud, but it would be louder without it.

blastpipes arent for you if your trying to make them quiet. there not called "blast" pipes for nothing.

I would have to agree with this. A resonator isn't going to quite it down as much as it will smooth the tone out. Either way its going to really loud.

I use to have straight 3" pipes on my bluebird with a 3" reasonator, it made it a little quieter but not street legal quiet.

Man go to a muffler shop, they will set you up with a custom glass pack bottle muffler that can be welded anywhere in your exhaust. Hopefully they don't rape your bank account.
