RCC Exhaust - Is anyone running?

[macfamm]

Hey guys, I'm interested in RCC's exhaust, but I don't want to make my cart too loud. Does anyone have any experience with it?



Thanks in advance for any opinions!

I used them about 5 years ago from time to time. Very loud and. in my experience, loss of performance...

Thanks Mike.

I just figured out that a search on "exhaust" instead of "muffler" actually produces a meaninful result.

I found your post about the mod for the stock exhaust. Assuming you've tried it, can you give me an opinion on how much louder I'll be making my cart if go through with it?

I just did " Mikes Mod " . It's a little louder than the little 1/2" stock exhaust pipe. But its no where Loud. I'm still getting the latest mods finished and driven it a lot. But from the first test rides it's not what I would call loud.... My 1/2 cent

I call it "Emotional Horsepower", otherwise known as noise. I personally do not feel that any aftermarket exhaust is worth the money spent. SUre someone may argue with me on this, but still - I won't sell them. We modified a few stock exhausts like I mentioned in that old thread. There 'seemed' to be a better performance gain from the modified stock exhaust. These small engines need back pressure to operate correctly.

My advice? Keep it stock, keep it quiet, save your coin on the aftermarket units!

I don't want any sponsors that sell them to get mad and I don't want to talk you out of buying. I just feel that it is my duty to let you know that I don't sell them for the EZGO because I don't think they actually DO anything!

Mike.Your opinion is gold here.If it bothers someone they need to shake it off. Your simply giving you honest opinion and I thought that what this place was all about......... Good honest help. My 1/2 ct

This thread is like the sled forums. Guys spending 100s of dollars to make their sleds sound cool and go faster. Most of the time no horsepower gain and we are losing trails and riding areas because of the noise.
