Stunning work. Any chance after all is said and done you'll have a dual exhaust version? Eh?

A.C.,
Dual outlet on the Drummer would ruin my reputation, so no I don't think so.....

I told you about a year ago that if you made it, I would buy : )... How much and when? I wouldn't mind having the first one, but I'm saving money for a move the middle of next month... I may be able to get one about the end of May or so.

Thank you : ).

Midknyte,
If you want dual outlets there are plenty pipes to choose from, and my design doesn't work well with dual outlets and they usually cause a powerloss in some area....I've messed with it years ago and it's not the path I take....I'm not going to be known for the dual outlet mufflers that look and sound good but lose power....I'm looking for big linear power curves and power starting from idle to wot that doesn't break the bank to get there....

Humm...does that mean my Buell race muffler is causing power loss. YIKES!

Beautiful muffler KD! I'm a CF junkie. None on my Buell, but my Ducati has plenty bolted to it.

Chad,
It loses till 4500rpm....I use the same can and different approach and one outlet and it makes more power.....

Ohmygod, that thing is amazing. I was just about to send off my ECM for DL tuning for my factory race muffler, but I'm going to hold off till that beautiful thing is under me.

Very nice job.

Is it loud? Too loud? Will it give the MIB a reason to pull me over?

Sokota -It will have stainless screws just like the SS has.

No dual outlets, no dual inlets no crossover pipes, no gimmicks. The man has made a believer out of me.

Screw the screws, use some good industrial grade adhesive. Cheaper and better. Trust me. ;) We use the stuff to hold satellite antennas and aircraft together. It oughta be okay for a muffler too. : )

Pretty sure that the Borla CF muffler for the tube framers only used adhesive. You can be that I've proof-tested that on multiple occasions. : ]

I keep hearing mention of the shootout, heck I've heard mention of it for quite some time now. Is there a date set for that yet?

No Kidding!?!? I live 50 min. from Silver Eagle. I didn't know they had a dyno. Will you be there all day both days? I have some other things I need to get done, but I may come hang out there for a day or two just to hear all those different mufflers.
