    Muffler source...?

    i recently obtained some headers for my buddies KZ that I showed here. Well, I have been trying to find a muffler for it and am having absolutely no luck. The pipe is ~2 1/8-2 3/8 diameter. Anyone know where I can get a muffler that isn't the crotch rocket coffee can type?

      I got my R1 titanium can muffler off eBay for $65 (delivered). I have it connected to a 4:1 Jardine.

          Mine had a car blue-bottle stuck on the 4 into 1!

          It actually sounded good, but looked like hell.

          If you go loud, Please, go home.

              a little flamboyant for my taste... Besides, my problem isn't finding little stock exhaust replacements. It is finding one that has a 2+" diameter.

                Do a google on KIRKER. I just bought new insides for my pipes. They are about 2 1/8 to 2 1/4". I think you can still get the complete muffler from them.

                    Try the Supertrapp website for Kerker exhausts.
