Default Making exhaust quieter?

I've got a Beowulf exhaust on my sv which I bought with it on and it's too loud! It's a short can but I think the baffle has been removed. Is there any way of checking if there gone? Can you buy baffles or will I need a new pipe?

Beowulf will be able to replace it or get a DbKiller off Ebay

Need a photo of the exit pipe to see if the baffle is in place

Well you can see the baffle bolt in that pic, so it should be there. Under the exit pipe is a 5mm hex bolt. This screws into the baffle to hold it in place.

My beowolf is getting silly loud too - I suspect it needs a repack, it was not this loud when new.

Just because the bolt is there doesn't mean the baffle is.
I took my baffle out but left the bolt in. That way the hole won't fill up with rubbish or rust so easy and ill not loose the bolt!
