I run dry to the very tip than out.
The difference over traditional wet is its at the very end and has to come way back to do any damage. For most that is enough, BTW my chitty e-top headers did finally start leaking,,,,,,, 21 years after new. Half of that in salt water. |

I'm sorry to add a possible stupid question here. Some of the above replies say the tail pipes are dry until the very end. How is that possible? isn't it wet until the very end, than exiting the water overboard at a different location away from the tail pipes?
Dry exhausts in i/o boats are still water cooled, but don’t have water enter the exhaust stream. Wet exhausts have water enter the exhaust stream. In i/o boats they are also double walked water cooled. |
I have Stainless Marine dry exhaust ,my water dumps out on the bottom of my pipes from a hole the size of a nic

Did you see any loss in power or speed at all. I purchased some 4 1/2” hpi’ clamp ons and would like to do a back to back comparison. If it tames it down a bit with little to no loss in power I’ll be pleased or at least many of the lake owners will.

I have some clamp on Gibson and I used them once on LOTO- Did quiet them down a lot.
Lost both drives that weekend and haven't used them again :lolhit: |
I am of the opinion that if you can hear the exhaust noise in the boat you aren't going fast enough. Once I hit 70 all I hear is a hum and deafening wind noise. I have a single with Lightning wet headers and people can still hear me after I've disappeared over the horizon.
