I got a new exhaust system but it's a bit loud, my previous exhaust (also aftermarket, jap made, jasma approved) has a silencer before the actual muffler, in the middle section, do these have a particular name! Can't seem to find any on here, just the actual mufflers

FYI Coby is a brand which makes resonators.
OP - it is most likely a resonator

I've got a Coby muffler on my car. Brilliant. maybe you could just change the muffler to something more effective rather than add an extra one or a resonater in the middle.

Off to the exhaust shop tomorro, I don't think it bring stainless steel helps either!

looks neat though.get rid of the noise before it reaches the stainless one.
i had an old diesel caldina with a big shiny muffler after the last standard mufflet.i reckon it helped it look less shit

FYI . LOL, Coby is a brand manufacture that makes ALL SORTS of exhaust products including MANY designs of silencers (commonly called mufflers)

A resonator type muffler . Mmmmm
Basically an empty chamber that allows a large collection pressured gas to accumulate & absorb/dissipatea certain amount of sound.
Sometimes that chamber is on it's own & sometimes attached inside the end of a std tube muffler

Yea they do sometimes "ring" a little more then a plain steel unit

Yes, thank you mr smart ass, but I was referring to the above post(s) where people were referring to a Coby as a type of muffler/resonator, when in this case it is the brand of the resonator, though commonly mistaken.

My old Austin Cambridge had two mufflers, one being called a resonator I think.
