I own a 2000 Tundra 4x4 limited. I had a Flowmaster 40 series installed
recently. GREAT sound outside, but the noise INside drives me crazy!
The fellow at the muffler shop said he removed the resonator because
there wasn't enough room for it. My question is....I have bought a new
resonator. Where do you install it...before or after the muffler? Any
particular distance from the muffler?
Thanks in advance,
Don L.

Resonators install after the muffler and are often part of the fancy chrome
tailpipes. I don't think it will affect inside noise much. How about foam
under the floor carpet or Dynamat?

Try around 2 foot back from the tail pipe room allowing. Resonators are
usually only about 1 1/2 inchs wider in diameter than the actual exhaust
pipe anyway. Some do frig all and some do heaps.

Thank you Wolf....I decided to buy a series 50 Flowmaster to quiet
things down. If its still not enough, I'll try your suggestion. Thanks
