Default Resonater question

Anybody know if a resonater from a turbo 1.8 will work on a 2.8 V6? I need mine replaced, and everybody who has one to sell are all off of Turbo cars.
Thanks

You should just go to a muffler shop and have them put one on for you. It shouldn't be very expensive. Hey, maybe it could even help with sound/performance a little bit.

I found a junk yard in south san diego, and got a resonater for 40 dollars. I was amazed by all the yards down there. There were all sorts of Audi's and V dubs down there! Got it installed and now i can actually talk at a normal level in the car. DO NOT TAKE OFF YOUR RESONATER!!! Aweful idea.

I like loud. Only time it was too loud was when I went open turbo soooo loud shook the car vibrated everything. It sounded like a diesel truck. Lol. Good times.

Yea I'm problly gonna get a small res like a glasspack or something when I get my 3" exhaust I like it loud but not honda gay retarted loud. More like r32 type growl is what I'm aiming for

Any resonator of the appropriate input/output size will work... Custom exhaust shop is best.
