• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Exhaust Question (Yes I know...)

I've looked and can't find an answer to my question, do slip on exhausts significantly change the sound? I'm not interested in popping wheelies 😁 just improve the sound. Thanks
 
Simply removing your cat and installing a cat delete will dramatically change the sound of your exhaust.
 
I have the RLS Exhaust cat delete with resonator and stock muffler. The sound is a smoother, throatier purr, without increasing the sound level. I am very pleased.
Call Rick at RLS - he makes them and can tell you what sound to expect from what component.
 
My 2015 Spyder F3 didn't sound too good when it broke down today. See my thread.:D

Yeah, but you didn't use a Slip-on exhaust to make it sound like THAT, did you?! :shocked: See my & other's answers in your thread. Good Luck! :thumbup:


Back to Mc Llyr's question, as other's have already suggested, the short answer to that question is YES, they can! :ohyea:

And expanding on that a little, an RLS (or any Cat Delete/Cat Eliminator for that matter) will generally also help add a little more 'mid-range' grunt, albeit possibly at the expense of losing a little 'low range' torque (the RLS Cat Deletes have largely resolved that tho! ;) ) so you've got TWO basically viable Options Mc Llyr, plus one more 'extension option' to change the sound.
  1. You can fit a Cat Delete with the Stock Muffler;
  2. you can fit an alternative Muffler in place of the Stock Unit, ie, your original 'Slip-on' option (IF you can find or make anything that'll actually Fit); or as the extension option,
  3. you can do both - Fit a Cat Delete AND an a/mkt Muffler Replacement!

And luckily for you, RLS Exhausts IS a Sponsor here, so well worth supporting.... but IIRC he might be waiting on materials to re-stock right now, so give him a call! Click on the RLS Exhaust.com logo on the Home Page for contact details! :thumbup:

Thanks!
 
You can make that thing just as loud as you want!! I would take baby steps, one thing at a time or you will be another one of those people that are on here trying to sell a pipe that they don't like!!:thumbup: Good luck, hope you find that perfect sound your looking for!!!

A recent topic suggested a $20 mod. Retain the oem converter, and have a tail pipe fabricated at a local muffler shop. Simply remove the entire muffler and use the cat as a muffler.

Simple, easy, and minimal cost if not content with it.
