Hey guys, I'm putting a resonator on my magnaflow cat back system but I'm not sure what size inlet I should be getting. The Magna flow pipe is 2.25. I have been told by a few people that I should get a resonator that is 2.5 inlet so it will go over the pipe slightly then clamp it down. Others have said to get a 2.25 inlet to match up with what the magnaflow system is.

If I get a 2.25 inlet wouldn't it be hard to weld that onto the exsting straight pipe? I need to know what I should be buying because I can't take this noise. Thanks

um... how do you think they weld the mufflers on in the first place, the pipe and mufflers/tips are all the same size [:D]



get a 2.25" muffler, get it welded on... no clamps... do it right the first time

Thats what I figured but when you got people who supposedly know about cars telling you to get something else it makes you have to ask these kinds of questions. Thanks for the input.
