randyp Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Ole Killer B has a straight pipe, just bout really tired of too much racket, thinking bout putting a resonator just under the stack. Found a 10 inch one on Iowa 80 that will fit. Yall think that may quiet it down a lil bit? It advertises to lower 3 to 6 dbs. Any lil bit may stop my brain from rattling. Its also adds 21 inches length, so that will get exhaust a lil higher off the cab. Any input? randyp Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/20500-resonators/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any input? randyplook at Pittsburgh power. i had straights for about 2 years and finally had enough of the headaches. i put a shorty performance muffler on it is idk maybe half the size of a regular muffler and it made a huge difference and it is also flow through. Resonators are like straights they look good but don't muffle a damn thing Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/20500-resonators/#findComment-85329 Share on other sites More sharing options...

slpwlker Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 Okay thanks slpwlker, i will check into that,,,,thanks,,,,randypyou know you could also check out any chrome shops in the area diesel performance places for like pickups. reason i say pickups is idk the size of your exhaust. you might be able to get a flow master that fits and it will give it a great sound Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/20500-resonators/#findComment-85333 Share on other sites More sharing options...
rhasler Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 We had a few RD800 trucks here that we had to install the short mufflers on so they could operate in the forests, spark arrestors I think?

Rob Posted September 8, 2011 Share Posted September 8, 2011 I like the trucks quiet too. Ain't nothing sweeter sounding, (other than "Momma's" shrill) than a smooth diesel engine at work.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
