    manzo axle back too loud and raspy!!!

    I went and did it last week. Installed the axle back exhaust. now i'm disappointed on how loud and raspy it is. i have ordered an ar20 resonator as some suggested. is there anything else i can do, other than put the oem exhaust back on?
    thanks in advance. love my M

    A resonator will reduce the noise, but not all the rasp IMO. You can look at other exhaust, and I would look at what's on YouTube of course to see the sound clips.
