It is a nice pipe & I really wanted to do a write up on it for everyone. But the guy with the HMF that "SWORE" he would meet me for some comparsion testing ... has never showed up. So I kinda hate to do a write up with nothing to compare it too ... Savvy ??
Oh, don't get the name "Quiet Core" mixed up with actually being "Quiet". It's just not as loud as the Power Core. I think the stock Grizzly pipe is 89 dbs. The Leo Quiet Core is 92 db's & the Power Core is 105 db's.
I'm looking real forward to getting that Benz Muffler attached (somehow) & going for a ride ... cause you can actually hear your engine with that muffler on .... SWEET !!!
I was just a little concerned becasue of the rpm drop. Like you mentioned, it may be nothing that will hurt performance ... I just need to turn the idle up .... but I wasn't expecting that to happen.
Later ...
