This is the turbodynamics off the ole turbo hot pocket. A stoner could get lost in the rainbow.

finally got the rest of them done yesterday--second brand new ZR8000:
stock 155.6hp,
Speedwerx 157.5hp,
MBRP 154.6hp,
SLP 156.0hp,
Bikeman 155.7hp,
Bikeman Powder Lite 155.2hp
Will try to have graphs/ weights/ dB/ backpressure/ CFM/ article posted on DTR this week. Also got Jaws with Jaws muffler data and a great Boondocker% and PCV map to email by Thursday (no PMs). Will ship all loaner stuff by UPS today or tomorrow. Thanks guys.

What Speedwerx muffler was used? Was it the L2 or the regular muffler?

Where did you get the velcro for your spare belts?

Buy some velcro tape at Canadian Tire and stick back sides together. Attach to frame with tie downs. At least, that's how I did it. Easy 5 minute job! Placed in front of can against magneto cover.

Took the bag off the tunnel and riveted it to the exhaust side panel after removing the epa foam. Did this on my turbo and my new 8000 both have aftermarket cans for clearance. Belt stays warm and clean and dry.

Exhaust cans

I picked up a new MBRP can yesterday.
After reading this I'm thinking I'm gong to take it back.
Looks like it lost some power.
I'd like an exhaust can that doesn't lose power.
Maybe makes a little more power, is as light as possible and slightly louder than stock.
I realize that's not easy to come up with all in on can.
It's even harder to find in Canada with the dollar exchange rate right now.

Yes. I agree.
I couldn't find one in Canada.
Ordering one from them would be $725 plus shipping and all the crossing the boarder costs would end being more than $800

Our Lightweight Muffler would fit your criteria-

If the exchange rate and shipping cost direct from us isn't very favorable, we do have distributors in Canada as well-
