real silent choice with y pipe OR switchable muffler tip
I sold a 96 scarab 29 twin 350 to a friend. Girlfriend says ok but needs to be silent... Since I pay... wich one is the cheapest ? 2nd, do you think muffler tip are efficient enough to shut his girlfriend's mouth and make me sell the boat?
Need your opinion and expertise about that. Thanks!

Women really hate when they cant be heard. 
To install silent choice you will have to pull the motors out to put the y-pipe in. Unless you can do it yourself it's not going to be cheap.

Both options would be good choices to have installed on the girl friend.
Actually, I have the Y-pipe option with staight tips no mufflers. Best of both worlds. Loud when you want it and quite in the channel or at the marina.

money wise, switchable muffler tips are the less expensive I would guess, right ?

There's just really no comparison between the two. Silent choice through the hub is exactly what it says, silent. It just doesn't work with bigger cams and certain cam overlaps. I use mufflers and they're pretty nice ( CMI ), but nowhere near silent. If I could go through the hub I'd do it in a minute.
