I decided to start working on my exhaust last night, so I figured this would be a good time to start a build thread.

I cut apart the stock exhaust that I got from USMarineDelta and bolted it up to give my self an idea of how loud it would be... And it was definitely loud! I cut the top off of a couple of soda bottles and taped them to the ends to simulate baffles, and it quieted it down quite a bit (until it blew them off that is). I'm thinking I might want to double up on my original baffle plan, but I won't know until I get it finished. I've got a feeling this is going to be a long process...

Nice start Friend!!

Am I going to have to cut out the bung for the O2 sensor and weld it into my new pipes, or is there a way to bypass it?

Here's the plan, by the way, for anyone who may be curious:

That looks good man can't wait to see it complete. As far as o2 sensor i would think that the computer needs it but not completely sure. Can't wait to finsished product

I have the Gman programmer, and they say to just unplug the O2 sensor. If you go with something like that, then you won't need to do that. Also, you can buy the bungs, would be easier than trying to cut it out neatly, then re welding it.

I thought about getting the Bully, but I'm trying to keep costs down...

Thanks for the tip on buying one though! Are they universal?

I am not sure if there are different sizes or not. We use them at work sometimes, and I think we just order O2 bungs. I don't remember giving a size. But I am not sure if motorcycle ones are smaller. You could always take your pipe in to an auto parts store, and see if any ol O2 sensor fits. If it does, then I would say they are all the same size.

Awesome idea, are you gonna run them wide open or do you have plans from baffles?

I have an extra bung I can sell you for $15 shipped. It has a nut on it incase you deside to take out the sensor and plug it.

Gonna use these baffles:

Maybe two per pipe if necessary

Cool thread to keep an eye on!

Big box on my door step this afternoon... This will be more than enough pieces to play with

Have fun and keep us updated.

Got my baffles last night. All I really need now is a welder...

Anyone interested in taking over this project? I ended up just buying a set from V-sinz, so all of this stuff is up for grabs. $150 shipped

Damnit. I got a hard on looking at this box of goodies.
