3.3TT MBRP Catback with downpipes - Droning - MBRP resonators install?

[Snowwhite]

I think it sounds decent with a cat-back. things go haywire when you start messing with downpipes.

So i endedup getting them installed. They really did as they said they would. I mean every once in a while you'll hear a tiny bit of droning at a certain RPM (not sure what gear) but it's almost unnoticeable. Absolutely nothing like it sounded like without the resonators. 100% worth it.

I have a stinger tribute and had a MBRP active catback installed. The drone between 2000-2500 in normal and sport mode, is quite annoying. I spoke to MBRP before the purchase and they said the catback already has resonators. I also was thinking of trying tips or getting a resonator. Could you let me know what resonators you purchased which stopped the drone and if you are using the same active catback as mine. Glad your issue is sorted

i dont think u need additional resonators. try tips first.

Been interested in the MBRP resonators for a little bit now. Keep us posted! I did the exhaust wrap and it helped quite a bit with the droning reverbing back into the cabin.

Hi do you have the mbrp active cat back exhaust ?

can u make some videos about how it sounds with mbrp resonators?

I have the ultimate performance HFC downpipe and mid pipe combo with the MBRP catback and the MBRP resonators.

Thank you! Sounds exactly what i would've imaged they sounded like but i think the resonators are key. without them it would be obnoxious. I tried it before and had to take off the MBRp catback and go back to stock because of the droning

I’m trying to bring this thread back alive.

I have the regular MBRP exhaust with tips on a 2019. Sounds amazing. I don’t think I have much drone. My question is, I plan on adding some secondary downpipes. Does anyone know or have a clip of how loud the exhaust will be now? I’m debating on if I need to purchase the MBRP resonators or are the tips enough for the drone?

I dont have a clip. but with secondary downpipes, tips werent enough to minimize drone to me. i have tried Vibrant 1792 9 inch case length+ 4 inch case width and a 11.5 inch case length+ 3.5 inch case width. the 3.5 inch one sounds better to me.

I had the MBRP aluminized on my 2018 stinger with no tips and i think it sounded great. the drone was not bad to me. now i have a 2022 stinger and installed the new mbrp. the drone is a lounder, but so are the burbles and downshifts, which I like. i had the mbrp resonators installed today, and while it did lower the drone, now i feel like its eliminated some of the frequencies for the sounds that I do like. it seems a little too quiet now. Do resonators need to be broken in ? I'm not even sure my exhaust is fully broken in yet, but if the sound stays this way I just might end up getting the resonators removed.

So the 11.5inch case length + 3.5 sounded better ? So I’m assuming each case makes the sound different?

wider resonator is more effective tone down high rpm sound. whereas narrower one is more effective on lower rpm sound.
