I have been totally flabbergasted at what all these companies get for a new muffler. There is NO way ANY new muffler for ANYTHING should cost $200-$300 . So much for my rant. I have a Kerker aftermarket muffler from a street bike (plenty large). Is there any reason I should not use it on my Rappy? It will fit nicely but will probably need a repack.

 

I hear ya these prices are redicules. Have you checked out the white brothers carbon pro system? 700 dollars for a system!

 

200-300? Maybe for a junk budget system or a slip on. If you arent spending 400 bucks you aren't getting the performance.

I can think of many reasons why you shouldnt use your streetbike can on the raptor, but the most obvious is the fabricating needed to install it. Even if you use the stock header, you will still have mounting and fitment issues. Not to mention the fact that atv and street bikes are typically tuned for different types of engines so your pipe designed to hit the sweet spot at 10k rpm is not going to work nearly as well on an atv kicking out max power at 7500 and cruising at 4500.

 

Why do they cost soo much? beacause soo many dolts are willing to pay that much. You could buy a small block chevy for the price of a good system and gain a bit more huh [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

 

Lol! Flabbergasted! My Living Enviornment teacher says that all the time. lol, thought it was funny.

 

haha lol , any ways on the pipes is slip on beeter ? Iam thinking of getting a FMF or a SuperTrap for the kodiak , what one is better ?

 

lol, the prices are crazy, you can buy a freekin streetbike exhaust for clsoe to the same price.

 

A slip-On is just the Muffler. A Full system is the Muffler and the Headers. The full system is better.

oh, and im getting an hmf, which is 400$ powercoated, for 400$ i can buy a new T.V!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

But whats more complicated? an aluminum can with stuffing or a a 30 inch TV with atleast 1 computer and tons of gadgetry. I think you should see why the muffler should cost more. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]
