Muffler
I am hoping to keep the 75 Ski Nautique, but Mrs Seacamper is complaining about the noise. Will the above mufflers just take the place of the straight pipes I am running now? Tom |

Tom,
A mouth gag for you wife would work even better!  Seriously, the mufflers will knock down the noise. Doesn't you 75 have mufflers? |

Fresh Air exhaust is pretty quiet too. Easy to install & you can take it off when you go to CCF reunions.

I tried the gag, but she seemed to like it so I got scared! Anyhow, no the 75 has straight pipes. They appear to be brass. |

Hey Chris, I had to google search that. I like the idea, but the $520 will probably be a show stopper, not that those mufflers are cheap!! |

I have FAE on my 82 SN and it works great for noise. If you consider it, send me a PM I think I just got a $100 off for a "refer a friend" promo. I'll look at my email. pretty sure I got one last week. I'd be happy to pass it along if you want. Price also depends on a fully welded unit or one that is rubber couplings and clamps. I have the clamp version, welded wasn't an option when I got mine. Ive never had any issues and only took about 30-45 minutes to install.

Thanks Jason,
Let me talk to FAE by phone and see what they say about a 75 SN. I also need to get the idea past the Mrs. |

Just add mufflers... Even the small can style (under $200) will knock down the sound a good bit.
