using high flo 4 I.D muffler for #5 blower

[AshleyMckendree]

Would a straight through 4 I.D high flo muffler be TOO LOUD?

Depends on what "too loud" means to you. I like the looks of it though. I have often thought a longer muffler with an adequate i.d. would do as well or better than a short choked down silencer. Only speculation though. It is another thing I have thought but not tried.

Nothing like a glasspack for a TM

NO WAY IN HELL....that muffler will quiet a blower not even multiple straight through ones would knock it down...lol Try a 4" flowmaster made for a diesel

the 70 series is gonna be noticeably quieter than the 50 but it doesnt come in 4" in/out

these can help take the edge off of the exhaust note... place as close to the blower as possible.

Thanks Brian!

You don't need a muffler for the blower. Call Les Jones and talk to him about the resonator he uses for their blowers. There was one at M fest and there was no noise coming from the blower exhaust.

Once you muffle the engine exhaust and then the blower exhaust, all you have left is blower noise and vibration noise. Look at the new Vortex....it was loud until they enclosed the blower.

If you want to know about blowers and such, talk to Vlad at Aerotech.

Ashley;

The muffler in your picture is too short for effective silencing.

This is the minimum length that we have found to be effective on a #5:

Larry, what is the actual measurement of the shell of that silencer without the inlet and outlet. I was going to order one but want to make sure it will fit.

 

[Larry Cobb]

Kevin;

The center portion of the silencer is 30" long.

Thanks

Lary do you have that in 4" in and out?

On the Dyno cones:

Typically good for a 1-3 reduction in dB.

That is not very much.

Lance is correct, Les's new silencer is pretty impressive for a short fat package.

I would be curious to know exactly what PowerClean is using on the dxt. There is little to no blower noise coming out of the exhaust. I wonder if they worked with Les or figured it out for themselves.
