Loooking for exhaust tips (mufflers)
 

Wife has problem communicating with buds while cruzing at any speed any suggestions on tips with out losing performance that actually have capabilities of toning down decibles to "talkable level"?What are the possibilities??

I put Shotguns on my boat this year. It made a big difference at idle and some at cruise speed. If you want to spend the ca$h, everybody who has the Teague switchables really seem to like them.

Go with the Teague Custom Marine tips. They ROCK!!!! I love mine

I have two sets of GIL clamp on switchable mufflers complete with the compressor and air cylinder assemblies that I need to sell.

hope this helps

The shotguns work great at low speed,ie: idling in/out of channels, around docks,etc. But, the principal on how they operate is that as your speed increases, the exhaust pressure increases; the pressure from the piston that keeps the flapper closed at low RPM's, is now overcome, and the flapper opens up. Basically, reverting to a low restriction thru hull system. It works great for the low speed & RPM situations, when enforcement for noise ordances typ. occurs. During the low speed conditions, the exhaust pressure is less, the piston pressure keeps the flapper closed, and the the exhaust is forced down toward the water thru the small holes in the bottom of the shotguns. But, if your goal is to reduce speed at higher cruising speeds, the big question is as to at what type of RPM's are you still looking for noise reduction. Installation is very simple and straightforward. In addition, they comply with jurisdictions that have requirements for no exhaust bypass or cut-outs(ie: NY State). The shotguns I have work great, and they are simple & reliable. But, I don't think they are the answer for higher speeds.

The teague's are Great!!!!SuperV has them on they are almost as quiet as my silent choice...He has a set of muffler's for sale cheap!616-299-4333(wade)

I use Corsa clamp-ons and have been very pleased. I did not see a decrease in speed and meet the <90DB sound requirement.

I have a set of corsa clamp ons that I want to sell. They fit 4" outlets and there new.

What about this instead?????

I've got the Gaffrig 1100's and they work good at idle I never leave them on at running speed.
And they have that classic offshore look. See Timucin picture above.

phantomchaos : that was nice!
:D :D :D

Teagues it is! on order maybe some peace at home now huh! Thanks you know if you have a good question you want find a better place to here everones opinion :D :D

You won't regret it. The Teagues are great, only prob is drilling 2 4.5 inch holes in your boat. YIKES! I think i measured that one 20 times before i finally layed the hole saw to fiberglass.. They make such a difference, most people think I have silent choice.:p

Holes already there had thru hulls for two years now, just tired of the whinning:D

You'll be drilling. The normal size hole for a thru hull is 4" the Teague tips are 4 1/2". You'll need to put a 4" hole saw into a 4 1/2" hole saw as a guide to drill them. Teague actually gave me that idea. You can't run much over 3000 with this tips, unless he has changed them in the last few years. I got mine when I with my teague motors and they told me nothing more than idle with them closed. Maybe just my application but you will want to check with them. I also run my exhaust almost dry, just enough water flowing trough the tips so I don't burn the transom.
You'll love the tips.
