Slide your fire extenguisher in there!!!!!!!!. Better yet, put some hydroturf on the outside of the rings, flip the resonator over and install it with the rings down.

How does she sound?

I think its gonna be loud ! let us know !




she sounds great on the hose! much deeper and i wanna say its even quiter too. it is much easier on the ears for the neighbors when flushing. i cant wait to get her in the water.


I cant turf and flip because of the angle of the outlets...hmmmmm
 
I tried one of those on a previous B1 (1993) that I owned. It was pretty much stock with at red pipe. It ran like mushy crap, so I removed it and sold it. But I never touched the carb or anything. Maybe it would have ran better with some tuning. Back then I didn't know enough to troubleshoot.

How does yours run?

i woulda mounted it in the rear accessed through the battery box

if it was a straight pipe design i woulda also but being this shape idk how you could pull that off.


I took her out today and the waterbox sounds great!!! its much deeper tone, my fiance said "it sounds a tiny tiny bit louder but i think its because it sounds fatter, less treble" so its less annoying/offensive if you ask me. less like a honda with exhaust, more like a supra with exhaust.

idk if its me but she seemed to have a bit more initial punch and felt some cavitation. after i install these CF reeds i have i think i might need a better prop.

you can always try a test fit, and see what you'd need to make it work, but as long as its working no need to mess with it :)

seems like it ran pretty good yesterday. surprisingly its not very loud at all...

maybe its time for a flow control valve though for a little more bottom end. then maybe it will get a bit louder though.

Yeah it sounds better installed correctly lol. Fcv is what I was thinkng next, my over all setup feels good and with my new seat investment I can't really send much more on it right now. Over the deep winter months I might pick a better pitched prop or have mine recon.
For small surf I sure had fun, never seen a gang of blaster

yeah too bad the surf was small... and i spent more time wrenching on the beach than riding. I haven't had good luck the last three times ive been out... been breaking something every time.

that's the first bad surf ive ridden all year though so i probably shouldn't complain.

Don't you think you have the Aqua muff installed upside down? Rings are supposed to be the mounting pads...
The exhaust outlet tube is the bigger one.
