Sparwood, B.C. Can.
I have taken a stock can apart to see how they are made. I really don't think they are made in such a way to have consistent hp numbers either. As any high production piece, including the pipe.
We used to throw identical sleds on the dyno and get 5-10 hp differences. Just a thought.

Is this code for the temp,sensor in the muffler? I have had one of those replaced and seen many others replaced, even with the stock suitcase.

Not sure Paul, I think it just came up muffler, check engine light came on and temp light, and seemed to miss a bit. Happend about 3 times and I turned it off and started it back up it would go away for awhile. When I rode out it didn't happen again?

My dealer was telling me that there is a brand new update to address a computer issue (running cold) that was throwing this sensor overheat code. Not super clear on it but it was separate from the break in update. Might be worh a call to dealer

Well, this makes total sense. We went riding when it was -2F and my wife's sled was throwig that code. There is NO WAY the can or pipe was overheating, everything was still cool-ish to the touch (pipe and can). Never thought that the computer was too cold. It uses fuel to cool it and the fuel was -2F since it sat outside all night. I rode it for a little while and really varied the throttle a ton, getting some extra heat into the motor, and the code never came back.
