What are you guys finding or putting on for a replacement can?
1100T exhaust
- Thread starter Kruchy
- Start date
Been looking at D&D's exhaust like their stage 2 Barker but was thinking of just doing their stage 3 straight pipe. Just wondering about how loud the straight pipe would be? The straight pipe only weighs 3 pounds thats a 20 pound saving, D&D is saying 193hp on stock boost.

yeah... 16 hp from the CAN on a 4 stroke... yeah, that's legit. You should get it.
So sick of the moronic claims companies make. (or people repeating them when they're clearly bs)
Stock exhaust is pretty restrictive for the turbo, D&D's numbers might be a little high but you could checkout there video of the dyno run.

D&D stage 2 and meth are going on mine...

a boat anchor
it may be restrictive... but SIXTEEN HP from a piece of pipe?:faint: C'mon... you know better!!!
The number game just gets old when you know they're full of it.
OR, is there just way more to what was being tested?
Ive talked to one company who has dynoed the straight pipe and said it lost hp on the 1100T.

I'll be keeping the quiet stock can on for a while.
Even if there is an aftermarket exhaust that supposedly is as quiet I'm sure that because of the different tone it would sound louder. Much like how being near a waterfall is very loud, but you don't see people wincing.
I'll be keeping the airvox intact too, since Arctic Cat spent a boatload of time tuning the noise it makes. I'm sure that with a gutted airbox it would sound like crap.

All you guys that doubt that a new muff will make the 1100t have almost 15hp extra are wrong. That stock muff on the new sled is restrictive. 4 strokes are a world of difference from 2 strokes. Ask some of the yamaha turbo kit builders about putting a restrictive muffler on their systems.
15 hp is doable and a 15 lb weight loss will be easy. It will be louder but likely quieter than a 2 stroke with a can. I heard 400 rpm increase from adding a can alone. 400 rpm is alot more hp.

Not to mention dynotech is a highly respected dyno facilty.

I would remove that company from my list of vendors for the turbo. It is very basic and common knowledge that reducing the pressure downstream of the turbine will make power on any turbo. The difference is even more dramatic at higher boost and/or higher elevation, as turbo can make more boost with less backpressure. Difference between stock and barker can be 40+ hp at higher boost levels. Maybe they misunderstood and told you resultas for N/A sled? The N/A four stroke will lose power with less restrictive exhaust due to its lean tune - this can be corrected by adding fuel. Exhaust options for this turbo sled are pretty simple. Louder = more power!

Thanks glenn

I was there when this was said and heard what madmax did. We both had our doubts but why would this reputable person say such a thing ? I guess we will have to find out for ourselves as soon as our 1100ts show up. Im thinking around 8 HP gain and 20lbs weight lose with a SS down pipe. Madmax has I carbon fiber top secret weapon to put on his haha.. Let the shootout begin!:boink: MADMAX =:second::becky:
Was just at the Edmonton sled show, a few 1100T sleds there on display, one had a straight pipe installed and the factory pipe beside it to show the size difference.What a clean install, ordered a straight pipe, don't care if I gain any HP.
By the way they had one all done in carbon fiber, I won't say the weight loss because it was a pretty big number that I can't prove - looked awesome tho.
These new cats look great modded, hope they perform as good as they look :face-icon-small-coo

Who did you order the straight pipe from?
X2 on who had the straight pipe in carbon fiber
