mfewtrail Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Anyone have pictures of the inside of one of these? I'm curious to see what they look like. If nobody has any, I'll hack one off next time I'm at a junkyard and take some pictures myself... Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 What the inside looks like or just the resonator itself? Its like a cherry bomb muffler is what it kinda looks like. Quote
slick Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Yeah, I've always heard of resonators being pretty much glasspacks or cherry bombs. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Ive thought of taking mine off, but I duno what a 3100 would sound like without one... Quote
pwmin Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 which one? the one before the split or after the cat? i can take a pic of the inside of the front one. i thought the second one was just a larger diameter w/ no sound material. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 There should only be one resonator... Its located right before the passengers rear wheel. Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 There should only be one resonator... Its located right before the passengers rear wheel. I am curious about this too.. I left my fork at the old house when we moved.. It had a Res.. AFAIK, we didn't get Resonators until the 3100s debuted.. This is as far as the Supremes go however, based on what I have seen.. And own, because I have a fork from a 91 Supreme sedan and it has NO resonator.. I wonder how it would sound without mufflers but those resonators in the place of the muffs.. Hmmm.. Quote
pwmin Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 i have an outside pic of the resonator after the cat. there was one there. maybe only a 96 3.4 thing? i cut it out and put a straight pipe in. Quote
19Cutlass94 Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 That looks like the actual cat. to me. The resonators are round. Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 That looks like the actual cat. to me. The resonators are round. Not always dude.. My mom's 96 Tracker has a cat, res., then piping to a muffler.. The res. looks like that one, just smkller becasue the thing is only 1.6L of raw fury.. Quote
digitaloutsider Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 It's very possible that the laster first gen's got a resonator after the cat, just like the second gens. Quote
97loudcut Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 My resonator looked like nothing. It wasn't perforated, it was straight through, and basically was a bulge in the exhuast. My 3100 was a little bit raspier without the resonator. No performance gain, just noise. Quote
Dirty Rockstar Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Good to know.. Ill make sure to put it on when I slap the Dual fork on.. Quote

My 3100 was a little bit raspier without the resonator. No performance gain, just noise. So it made more nosie but still doesnt go anywhere?! Quote
97loudcut Posted April 3, 2007 Report Posted April 3, 2007 Good to know.. Ill make sure to put it on when I slap the Dual fork on.. Yup, I kept mine on when I re-did my exhuast last year. Quote
