So I'm looking the quietest and the lightest can possible. I had Sno stuff rumble pack on about 50km and switched back to stock. Rumble pack sure is light but way too loud. Any suggestion which way to go?
 

X2 on the SLP. Benders are just a tad quieter than the Sno-Stuff. If you want a little better 'tone', have you considered boring your stock can? Much cheaper and sounds great.


Silencer Boring

Here it is in a nut shell how to bore out your stock silencer on a SX, SXR or any 600/700 triple based on the SX motor.

First the things you will need
1. you will need a good drill
2. 2" metal hole saw (see pic below)
3. 12 inch drill extension
4. A magnet on a stick (like in car parts store) could come in handy
5. needle nose pliers or visegrips

OK first thing is take the springs that hold the can in place off with the
pliers. Then take the can out and turn it up side down, the exhaust pipe that
goes through the belly pan is where you will be drilling. Put the can on its
side in a vise with the exhaust port pointing out the side. Take a light and
look into the can, you will see a flat baffle plate inside. This is the
plate you will need to drill, this is the only baffle you need to drill.
Take your drill, extension, and hole saw and insert it in the exhaust hole and
drill. It will take some time and patience to drill through, but it will go.
Once through, if you're lucky the piece you drilled out will remain in the
hole saw. If not turn can right side up and shake it till the piece falls
out the bottom, or take the magnet and try and fish it out. Next just
reinstall your can, and enjoy the sweet sound and free HP.

Stock can have two about 1/2 inch holes bored to it, but I'm looking mostly weight reduction.
How Mbrp Trail can or Skinz Ultra-Q compares to SLP?
 
Well two sure fire ways that will work.
- strip down to essential light weight clothes
- loss body weight (I think that's what a diet is for)

The machine will run better and lighter.

Well that didn't answer my question in any ways. Trying to be smartass?
 
Hey if you just bored the can out the cops can't yell at you for having a can. Officer it's stock. Don't know what to tell ya ;)


iPhone using the dreaded Crapatalk
 

That second one is Super-Q, what is supposed to be louder than Ultra-Q.


And that does not say is it race or trail, I think its race though.

That's not really problem here Finland (yet) But I don't want to be the loudest, though I drive nicely where there are people around.

SLP claims to be 6,5lbs lighter, Skinz 8lbs, Mbrp don't say anything on their website but some video said it weigh 8lbs.
Anyone knows what the stock weighs exactly?

Id recommend the slp. maybe even a dynoport. Put ad up on the classifieds and find yourself a used one off a member cheap. Its easier to tell you what ones to stay away if you dont want it loud,,, MBRP race and trail, snow stuff, skinz super q, bender race, etc..
