Skinz actually has a flow bench to test and match back pressure from the stock cans.

I have no reservations on using their cans whatsoever.

I prefer the quieter Ultra-Q myself.

We have used this can on several pros up here in North Idaho and it has done nothing but make the performance better. Like stated above, Skinz can actually test for back pressure and these cans flat out work. Well over a 1k miles on several sleds with them.

After reading this thread I looked at the skinz website. they are listing the Ultra-Q and Super-Q at 14.4 lbs lighter than stock.......that can't be right.....is it?

No! But that is correct for the cats, my buddy just put one on an it was 14.5 lbs lighter

The pro is almost 5 lbs lighter, I have over a thousand miles with mine & love it !

Skinz may have some quality control issues.

The tab blew out of the back of the silencer and was bouncing around by the clutches. The whole backside of the can is cracked out.

This is after one season.

It looks like the can was dented in the 2nd pic on the right. If that's the case it could have been what caused the crack. Did you hit something?

That dent is to clear the brake rotor.
Skinz put it there.
