Do resonator tips work?

[Mr_Shamrock]

My 95 Stepside is running a dual in dual out magnaflow and I am getting some wicked resonation at lower RPM's taking off. Would putting some tips with resonators in them make a difference or should I just look for a different muffler or what?

about as well as tin foil around the tip.
honesty im sure some companies make ones that work but ive never seen them

How is the exit run now?

[Mr_Shamrock]

It it run out of each back corner tucked underneath the truck, but angled where it should push the exhaust out from under the truck - it is lowered so this may add a little noise. The current set-up is true dual out of the manifolds to a 2 in 2 out magnaflow. The PO (for some reason) went to 3" pipe a couple feet from the muffler all the way back. Would it make a difference if I used smaller pipe there. It also doesn't have CAT's.

I put on a set from borla on one time on my truck, with longtubes and slp loudmouth I's, it completly shut it up. It was so dang quiet it was like I put on a stock muffler, they didnt stay on long before I wanted to hear it rumble again. So the answer is yes, a quality set of resonated tips will reduce noise and rasp.

Yes they will help. I would not spend the money to change pipe size, just add some resonators.
