A local guy is selling a Bender can for 98-02 SRX for 200cdn. Are these things worth the investment? How much louder are they than stock? Is re-jetting and clutch work required ?

Adding the bender can will cause your sled to make less power.

Boring the stock silencer will give you a better sound, and it wont cost you any money (except for the cost of the holesaw). But, it's your money, spend it as you like.

I've heard of boring out the can on SX 600/700 single pipes, but never on the SRX. According to the tech section, this mod adds some power to the SX's. Does it add any power to the SRX or mainly just sweeten the sound? Have others bored the can on their SRX?

I Agree With 98srx6, It Might Sound Better But They Seem To Run Better With The Stock Silencer.

But even if you lose up to 5 hp the loss of 15+ lbs. is worth it!

thats true, but there are also many other cheaper ways to make your sled light.

BTW yamahay, you dont have to rejet or reclutch your sled after installing a bender silencer.

Yes, you can bore that silencer...the directions are on the tech page, and it will make your sled louder.

I have an MBRP can and i get better performance with that one than the stocker in 660ft........I had the stock can on with only clutching and gearing lined up with my budies rev 8 ,3 times and always had the same results ,him in front by 1/2-1 sled lenght........take 5 minutes put on the MBRP lined up 3 more times and and i was in front about a ski lenght all three times....i never tried to see if the top end suffers......also not very loud at low rpm.

Buy the Bender can!!!
The sound is amazing! I bought one the same day I picked up my 2000 SRX.
I drove te machine for 3 years. The last trip before I sold the sled....I put the stock can back on....It ran 2mph slower!....and I wrecked the weekend....no fun running with the stock sound!!!
Buy It!!!!
