Default Exhaust question

Maybe this should be a poll?

Should I modify the (modified) can to be either:

1)empty can
2)a piece of normal tubing inside the can instead of perforated

and also, should the can be:

1)high level as it is now
2)very low level... straight out of the collector.


Or maybe even a piece of solid tube halfway down the can, but this would cause allsorts of waves (ba-dum-tishch)

It's in progress but I'm lazy. My cunning plan involves speaker wire, a fuse, the top yoke, an LED and some tape.

As you know Chris the exhaust on the 750 is a M4 full system and the can is more of a dummy than anything. The baffle material and the perforated tube have been removed, the perforated tube was replaced with a solid tube which basically turns the can in to an extended link pipe.

As loud as hell, but it gives the illusion that there is some form of a silencer on there. The empty can modification did not do my 750 any favours, the solid tube did.

PS. I say keep the exhaust at the height it is at now.

What's the sound like though, is it the deep boom of a normal packed can (esp akros from what I've heard so far) or like the "brap" of open collector?
