I still have the as new s/s Cybox system, but am now actively looking for the source of the resonance. I think the problem is the wheel well, which is resonating badly at 1400-2200 revs under load. The exhaust bracket on mine is welded to the passenger side of the wheel well, and even with a new rubber support, I feel it's not decoupling the exhaust enough from the side of the wheel well. With everything out of the wheel bay, tapping it really does boom like a steel drum. Play from engine mountings may also be another factor. but I haven't properly checked them yet. I'm going to clean up and paint the wheel well properly and then strategically supplement the existing sound deadener strips with Noico 2mm butyl sound deadener. I've a load of other stuff ongoing, so won't be able to report on results for a while until the car is back on the road. |
