I love the sound of my powderlite on my sled it's a 2010 M8 with there fat azz pipe and ypipe, but I have heard the same setup on a Rmk Pro 800 last yr and it sounds awesome. Yes therenis big weight loss with the can, and no power loss with it I think u might gain like 1HP. And if you add there pipe it sounds even better!!!!

BMP Powderlight VS. Full Velocity...

I currently have a 2012 Pro Chassis (its a switchback assault) had a 11' also... Bought the powder light and love BMP's products. I also had a 2010 RMK Assault. That sled i ran the "full velocity" can from BMP. I think if i were to go back and do it again... I would get the "full velocity" for my Pro. The powder light is about a pound lighter, but it is also REALLY loud, Loudest by far of any cans I've had the experience of running next to. (which is only SLP and HPS I Guess...) Im afraid im no help on power loss running the powder light, I put it on only to go out west and obviously lost a ton of power going from sea level to 8000' i wouldnt be able to tell you... I will tell you that running that can, and using polaris exact specs on their clutching chart for that altitude, i was blown away at how well it ran. Im used to unloading and tuning for a couple hours before riding but this sled was dialed in held right around 8150-8200rpms all day long.

hmm.

I wouldnt call it stupid loud... I mean its no Turbo'd apex bellaring up a hill that you can hear for miles away... But I would say that it is definitely one of the loudest on the market. Power gains or losses, i wouldnt have a clue. -Theres a thread going in the "Pro" forum about whether theres a place for loud exhaust anymore. Which brings up a great point, I didnt necessarily buy it just for the sound, I bought it for the weight savings.- I wanted the lightest can possible. Obviously lighter can = less material = less sound dampening. Like i said, if i had it all to do again, (hindsight is 20/20) I would go with the "full velocity" can again. If i want to lose that extra pound I'll have to lay off the cheeseburgers... SO if you buy that one and dont like it... Get ahold of me, i'll trade you.
