What do you sell right now that gets rid of that exhaust leak sound?

I'm not sure what you're talking about. I don't have that on any of my Spyders.

Thanks for the response Lamonster. I ask because I have a Two brothers exhaust. I had it on for about a month. I liked the sound but I could tell it was down on midrange power and the gas mileage was little lower than with the stock exhaust. I have the stock exhaust on again due to the wife not liking me cranking up the spyder in the mornings for work. I do have the Two brothers exhaust up for sale in the classifieds but I am wondering if I should try this also?

I don't think it's going to be anywhere near stock with the baffle in if that's what you're looking for.

No not what I am looking for. I like the sound of the two brothers exhaust just wondering if this would make little more back pressure, stop little popping on decelaration and give little bit better gas milage. I think I may just go ahead and sell the two brothers and eventually get the cat delete and the baffle.

I started this whole Big City Thunder baffle topic in August, first post on this topic. At the time I had a TB system on my F3 and was trying to reduce the decell poping and quit it down. I had put BCT baffles in my Harley and was very pleased with the outcome so I ordered one for the TB pipe. It did take care of the decell poping, but the exhaust was still not to my liking. When my wife got her F3 from Pit bull we had the Lamont pipe installed. I ordered another BCT baffle for my wife F3 and liked the exhaust note with this setup so I removed the TB and installed Lamont's pipe with a BCT baffle. It makes no difference which cat delete pipe you have the BCT baffle will work.

BCT baffle direction

Just a note about the direction the baffle should face when installed in the bypass pipe: I was advised by BCT to install the baffle with the point of the cone facing toward the engine. Your pic is showing the opposite direction - though I know the pic is not an install instruction.

Looks like the pipe will need to be drilled, am I right? And if it is the case is there a template that comes with the baffle to determine the place to drill? What tools are needed?
-
I WAS WONDERING THE SAME THING
Dont recall if the pipe can with a predrilled hole.

The baffle can be installed pointed in eather direction, but the suggested method would be to point the cone toward the exhaust end. Installation is simple just pre fit baffle in pipe and note where hole needs to he drilled, drill hole and install baffle. Make sure to use red lock tight on screw.

THANKS
I will be in contact with you and Lamont if i have any problems.

Just wondering if the baffle is installed between the cat bypass and the exhaust why you would need to drill anything? It sure can't go anywhere.

Talking with Jim at Big City Thunder he didn't recommend the sleeve. There can be fitting issues because of the weld on the inside and there is nothing to gain by their test having the sleeve. I went by his recommendation.
I'm out of stock now but will be ordering more Monday. Thanks

I had a long conversation with Jim on this and there is nothing to be gained either way, the back pressure is the same either way according to the owner.
