Emgo Exhaust??

[dsinned_imp]

I'm in the process of getting this "shorty" reverse cone slip on. Should have it by Friday. The cost is unbelievable on ebay! Only $46 shipped!

As "gcarper" stated, the key to avoiding mounting issues is getting a separate link pipe with an integrated center stand stop bracket welded on it. I removed my stock muffler last night to see what I'm up against.

There is about a 5.5 inch long "curved" link pipe already welded in place to the collector (and cat) for the stock 4:1 headers. Apparently this is not long enough for the 17" long Emgo to reach the existing secondary mounting point for the stock muffler. It needs to be extended with an additional link pipe attached to the end of the OEM link pipe.

I'd "estimate" the extra link pipe extension needs to be about 5 or 6" long, and might be longer as originally supplied from the manufacturer. It can be cut to length with a hack saw to achieve the proper length. JUST BE SURE THE CENTER STAND BRACKET IS STILL WITHIN THE USABLE SECTION, so the Emgo itself can be bolted to the existing secondary mounting point. The Emgo conveniently has an adjustable fastener for this mounting on the back side of the muffler. Thus, the secondary mounting point for THIS slip on does not need to be a precise measurement. Thank God for this included adjustability!

Surprisingly, the stock exhaust muffler weights about 10 lbs, and the Emgo is only about 3 lbs. I'm guessing the extra link pipe (and all associated clamps) adds about 2 lbs, so the net weight savings is ~5 lbs.
