muffler suggestions
 
1 Attachment(s)
ok, I take the boat for a quick hot lap after I change the oil at the local lake and I find myself with 2 jet ski sherrifs following me for over 1/2 hr at 55+ mph. It seams that they came after me right after I got on plane and didn't even know they were behind me until I came back to the marina to load up the boat on the trailer. No ticket but a warning to get mufflers next time out or I will be cited. So, any suggestions on mufflers that can bolt to cast alluminum tail pipes or do I have to remove the tips from the transom and replace with complete mufflers... I heard good results from GGB and Gibson...I have twin n/a 502 mags with Imco manifolds.

Suggestions Please...thanks

I would recommmend GGB extremes. It is hard to tell from your picture, but your tips may be a bit too short to clamp them on. I think they need a minimum of 3" to clamp properly.

A buddy just installed the Gibsons on his blown Cig. Really quieted it down. No noticeable performance change.

I've sold both brands you're considering and a bunch of others. I'd be happy to share the experiences of our customers regardless of where or what you buy.

Thanks all;

Fred, thanks for the offer, I will give you a ring to check on my options-

ah ha! thats why side by side there is a very noticable difference; the density and depth shines through :drink: ...GGB for me

I just put GGBs on my Gun with 850 blower motors, it is quiet.
You can talk now until the wind gets you, it's like a set of small blocks compared to before, know more ears ringing, they really did work for us!
