    Muffler

    Is this the OEM muffler?
    Sorry I don't have a better angle.

    Thanks.

    Now the decision... Dynomax Super Turbo Muffler
    Single or single in dual out, or pure dual...
    Wish there was a definite answer.

    Has anyone tried this kit yet? Does it fit easily?
    Would it be cheaper to have the shop custom make the pipes and tips or buy this kit and have them fit and bend it?

    What's wrong with the OEM? It last's (even in salty climates) for thirteen years!

    Super turbo by dynomax is the way to go.

    I got true dual system under the carriage and love it all.

    However a single to dual would also do the trick for sure
    Dakar was just the begining.

    I was quoted $500 for the OEM Muffler and a 6 week wait. Reason enough for me to go after market.

    How may mufflers last for thirteen years? It's worth the wait.

    You have a wide choice of styles AND sounds to consider.

    Do you want a throatier rumble..or is the stock sound good for you?

    I had a custom system built based around a Flowmaster Super44...
    ...with single in/dual out...and dual tail pipes either side.

    IMO..Great sounding / good looking and fit neatly in the available space.

    I did opt for the tougher Black Diamond Plate version....
    ...for extra strength if I ding it off road.

    I forget the exact all up cost...but it was in the $400-450 range.
