Default Injen Ti true dual exhaust + titek tps + magnaflow x pipe = LOUD
Just installed titek TPs + injen ti true dual exhaust and got the Magnaflow #11385 x pipe installed and wow it is still crazy loud even with the X-Pipe. Especially around 1800-2300 RPM it drones like crazy. Any way to cut down on the drone and quiet it down some more without taking off the TPs? The Injen came with a built in H - Pipe and Resonators but had to get those removed to fit the magnaflow X-pipe. Any suggestions? Ill provide a sound clip later when I can get access to a camera.

Normal driving shifting around 3.5k rpm In car video:

Ha I just realized thats a bad video clip to be using. The only bad part is the drone from 1.8k to 2.2k rpm. I was in the 2.5k to 3.5k rpm in that video haha. Ill upload a new one today.

I see that you used a 4x9 muffler. Is there room for a bigger one, say 6x12, or 5x8?

It is a little on the LOUDER side. If you're stuck with it, the only thing I can suggest to help would be to intall one of those subwoofer box set ups under your rear strut bar and turn up the volume!

One problem is that magnaflow doesn't look to have an X inside it:

The other thing is you have no resonators and look to have pretty smaller mufflers on the ends.

Part # 11385 does have a true perforated X core but it doesnt state it on the magnaflow site. Search up Magnaflow 11385 and youll see for yourself. Also I cant fit the X pipe and the resonators. Most people who purchase the X pipe replace the resonators anyways.
