Default FAT CAT with a different muffler
Has anyone mated another muffler (quieter) to the Fat Cat header?

Seems like Phil M put a Supertrapp muffler on Fat Cat header. It was posted here I believe.

PhilM and a few others have mounted a Supertrapp muffler to it. You will have to weld on some mounts in the rear, and make an extension pipe since the Supertrapp muffler is shorter then the Fatcat muffler.

Steve,
I saw that somewhere but can't find it now,I see the Supertrapp is 24" long like my muffler but they don't come in chrome. I was hoping there's something quieter out there,I had the Supertrapp 2-1 on my 107 and it wore us down after a couple of hours.

I'm going to modify the quiet baffle for the Fatcat to make it even quieter. See how that works out when I get around to doing it.

The setup I've used is a Trapp can on a Boarzilla, NOT a FatCat... The 24" Trapp can is just the right length for a Boarzilla.
