When Tony says "just squeaks by", that is in the public library like sites
they have. I have run against this car and it is SILENT in comparison to
an
open Aaen/Rotax!

I added one of these on each pipe,
welding up an adapter to my
dynotune pipes (which already contain fiberglass
packing that I
replace frequently), wrapped the big parts and every other
accessible
pipe, added a padded sound-deadening box around the carbs and K&N
filters (often mentioned here by Bobby J), and still just barely
squeak by
on sound. Often, I have to add right angle adaptors that
aim the Aaen
mufflers straight down. These mufflers are well made and
light weight.

Yes it does. From Aaen it
actually comes as a solid round alum pipe,
about .125" wall thickness. I
hack sawed a groove in mine for clamping
it on. It must be easy to take off
because IT'S ILLEGAL, still,
after 4
or 5 years now of SCCA
indifference. Hence at "important" events I
have
to take it off. The
length past the rear axle is something like 3 or 4
inches longer than the
24" rule. But then again, who would ever
protest
someone for putting a
muffler on their car?
Here's a link ... I use the 3" alum. It looks like
it ought to be
heavy
but it's really quite light.

body deadens sound much better than steel
John, does that muffler
bolt on to the end of the stinger?
