I have a 36 pd, the warranty is up, and Im ready to add performance exhaust and carb, could anyone give some advice on wich one to go with and where to purchase it. Also does performance heads affect the life of the engine?

 Re: exhaust advice
Depends on which MM you get. The one with the baffles is quiet, while the one without the baffles sounds similar to the crossover with a silencer in it. Both are very good products, and are definitely worth the $$. I have the BPS, but the MM looks badazz on a PD.

 Re: exhaust advice
Thanks for the advice guys. I went with the Mikuni carb and the BPS exhaust. Now the rest of my hitch will surely be a long one, wanting to get home and put this package together and see what she'll do.

 Re: exhaust advice
I like the look. The only problem might be tryin to hide it in the duck blind vs. my rusted out , blown baffle, stock exhaust.

 Re: exhaust advice
With the Carb and exhaust installed I notice a lot of performance in the hole shot and lower end of acceleration. It is hard to say if I gained any speed due to a lot of extra wear on the prop the day before installation. Once I put a new prop on I can post #'s.

 Re: exhaust advice
Mine looked like that after the 1st time I ran it. It is not even that shinny now. It seems to be a sweet exhaust so far

 Re: exhaust advice
Sounds like it is going to go to the dry dock to do exactly that. Will be down for a while. And I would like to see this big SOB floating on some braces on a dry dock. Thats another documentary on the discovery channel right there. It will probably air right after the BP oil spill documentary.
