Cool Need Help With 2004 Lightning Exhaust

Hello all!!! I have entered into an agreement on a 2004 Lightning. The exhaust has mufflers (Factory) on the transom. The boat does not has Quick & Quiet or Silent Choice. I like the straight exhaust but need the ability to switch to through prop. What do I need for parts to get this done.... The boat has 40 hours on it and I need to decide a course of action quickly......
In advance (Thank You)
Scott

Ps : 38 Staggered....525's with Bravo xr

does the boat have a y pipe in it now? if so i may have the erector set of exhaust for you. its originally out of a 42 but i think you can make it work. its original fountain.

if not you ll need diverters and some wiring work essentially.

Don't the 525's have CMI headers?

I changed the sound choice tailpipes on my forward (Stbd.) 525 engine,to try something, on a 04,38 Lightning. Have the pair of tails and the Fountain modified bullhorn.

You might want to think about external switchable mufflers. CMI has systems. Think they call it 'external choice'
