Does this muffler need periodic repacking? I have a FMF on my 08 KLR and im tired of repacking, looking for more maintenance free...

I remember looking that up and finding out that it doesn't need lots of maint. .. but check their website, the reviews there says it all http://www.rockymountainatvmc.com/p/902/19536/Lexx-MXe-Slip-On-Silencer-With-Mid-Pipe?term=lexx%20mxe%20slip-on%20silencer

Yes, I installed the MBRP exhaust system with very little trouble despite the lack of mechanical skills on my behalf. 6 months later i am very satisfied with my purchase....!! My vehicle is a 2000 f-350 dual rear wheel or "dually"

Depends on the car and engine for what sound you get, I had a 2010 MB C300 and it did make a slight difference. More of a change in a lot of acceleration, not much change in idle noise. Technically on a lease you can't modify the exhaust, chances are they won't find it when you turn it back in though. Just keep the resonator when they take it out and when you return the car you can always put the resonator back in. It doesn't void warranty. The manufacturer just would not cover the warrenty on the Xpipe or anything past the Xpipe (muffler and exhaust tips) since you modified before it. This xpipe is a replacement for the resonator (basically a secondary muffler, in general terms) in the exhaust system.

dude this exhaust is still sitting in my garage, i bought this damn thing and took it a professional exhaust shop to install it, they wanted to charge me $350 to weld a extra inch or two of metal on it. and they said the exhaust would rattle while driving, and honestly you can fix that with just wrapping it with engine wrap and avoid the clanging sound. but honest man, this exhaust is short on my g35 coupe. i need another inch-3 to get it to fit past the rear bumper so it wont melt. youre better off not buying this. and the only reason i didnt return it, is because its such a hassle to put this in my coupe in a box and sent back. wouldnt reccomend this for any car. dude this exhaust is still sitting in my garage, i bought this damn thing and took it a professional exhaust shop to install it, they wanted to charge me $350 to weld a extra inch or two of metal on it. and they said the exhaust would rattle while driving, and honestly you can fix that with just wrapping it with engine wrap and avoid the clanging sound. but honest man, this exhaust is short on my g35 coupe. i need another inch-3 to get it to fit past the rear bumper so it wont melt. youre better off not buying this. and the only reason i didnt return it, is because its such a hassle to put... » Read More dude this exhaust is still sitting in my garage, i bought this damn thing and took it a professional exhaust shop to install it, they wanted to charge me $350 to weld a extra inch or two of metal on it. and they said the exhaust would rattle while driving, and honestly you can fix that with just wrapping it with engine wrap and avoid the clanging sound. but honest man, this exhaust is short on my g35 coupe. i need another inch-3 to get it to fit past the rear bumper so it wont melt. youre better off not buying this. and the only reason i didnt return it, is because its such a hassle to put this in my coupe in a box and sent back. wouldnt reccomend this for any car. « Show Less

I have it on a 347 stroker engine so I don't hear it. I think it cools great for the engine. Yes I would buy it again.

I live in a pretty humid enviro and have had my jeep off-road a good bit and pressure wash the muffler too. Have had no evidence of rust for the 6 mo I've had mine. Still looks good!

Yeah I have mine on my 07 cobalt ls. It sounds really good, but if you take the silencer out it sounds like every other rice burner. But yes, very nice sounding muffler. There's vids on YouTube, before and afters, that's what made me buy it. I got that and a k&n short ram intake and my Slow 140hp 2.2 4cylinder sounds like a freakin beast. Everyone alwaaaays asks if it's an ss. Oh and it even improved the torque a little bit. Just enough to notice. But I highly recommend you get a k&n typhoon intake, gives it a great sound at high rpm and gives about 5 more horsepower and quite a bit of torque.

I had a shop perform the work and was charged $54.00. Apparently it is a very simple job, but they said the original muffler needed to be heated to get it off with much effort. They bill reflected a half hour of shop time. I am very happy with the new muffler, the only minor issue which I was aware off before my purchase it sits out about inch further on one side. I think if you are doing the job yourself you may be able to adjust the hangers to get it even. This issue may be year specific, I have a 2012. Hope this helps.

Well it depends on what the law is where you are located. Also how you have your exhaust setup such straight pipe to the muffler. I run straight pipe then a 18" resonator the then muffler at the end. It's not too loud that way but you can always leave the silencer in to be sure.

I have this on my Fz8 2011- its an awesome pipe- i actually thought i gained some power - and losimg about 20lbs from the stock exhaust.Rob

Yes....I had the same problem. I think it is some type of oil they have on the muffler....maybe residue from the manufacturing of it. Or it could be the sticker on the muffler. I have not been able to track it down.

Unless you upgrade your cat-back you will notice nothing from just a muffler replacement. The only thing you will notice is a change in sound.

This should not require a reflash. I installed as my first mod on my 06.Also never heard of others with issues.The intake hiss is about the only thing you will probably notice.

Well...Since it is December I haven't ridden at all. MY issue is that I am wondering whether or not to take the baffles out. It's easy to do.. Heat shields? Never seen em. They do get hot though.

You shouldn't have to do anything different if you have the stage one download already. I put exhaust on my 07 softail and didn't do the the intake and filter until later because of the money.

I keep that thing in my trunk and with out its case. It gets banged up pretty bad. The instrument is still holds its tuning. No issue whatsoever with the key action. Its a tank.

The final pipe is not really an over size tip, just the same size output as the rest of the exhaust. Yes the muffler is there. It is really a free flow resenator, still has a great tone!
