If there is temperature change in the exhaust due to outside ambient temps the speed of sound will change and the wave length will also be affected.

Frequency=Speed of sound/Wave Length

This may be a non-issue if the exhaust temps are not affected much by the outside temps.

my 2 cents

This is true for the math, but the exhaust temps should be pretty similar despite outside temperatures. Perhaps a bit cooler in the winter but still pretty close. The side branch resonators cover about 15 points of frequency completely and then begin to lose a bit of efficiency. On my car it knocked out all the drone from 2200rpms through 3000rpms. I expect in winter for the car to make a bit more noise but probably not much. Can always report back when its cold outside.

Sounds good. 15 points=how much bandwidth?

Nice job on the Helmholtz solution!

Sorry points was not very tech savvy, I meant 15hz. The frequencies from 115hz to 130hz seem pretty tame now, per Audacity on my PC when I did re-recording spectrum analysis reviews.
