I unfortunately live in Massachusetts and there are strict laws on exhaust noise especially when it comes to passing inspection. I bought a Skunk2 and retrofitted it to go inside of the stock 3" muffler I had. (I don't know what it is to be honest it came with the car). The question is, is there any way to make it quieter? I've heard about guys putting lots of steel wool into their exhaust, but to me that just doesn't seem like the right thing to do since this car has a big FPBlack turbo and needs a lot of exhaust discharge coming through. I was thinking about wrapping the nozzle that comes out of the skunk 3" plate (inside of the muffler) with a little more steel wool to see if it helps. Any ideas on how to make it quieter yet?
Thanks a lot
David
 
Some folks have added a resonator after the cat which would further help quieting things down. May be hard to find a 3" resonator but I haven't looked either.
 
Find an stock exhaust for your car at junkyard. Use the stock exhaust for emissions then bolt I your skunk 2 :D
