4" Rineharts whisteling
I have the new 4" Rineharts and I have noticed a whisteling sound while excellerating. I have made sure all exhaust connections are tight. Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any suggestions?
remove the slip ons - add Silicon around the exhaust pipe - slip back the slip-ons and Voila - solved it for me... i think its from a air leak... ive read some people also put anti-sieze paste...

I think the installation instructions actually said something about putting a bead of rtv on the head pipe when installing. I didn't do it though, because I didn't have any and it was like 1 am when I was putting them on.
You know how it is when your parts come in when you're at work, and you want to get them on right now...

I got no whistle from my Rinehart slip-ons. I didnt use any sealer either, just made sure all connections were very tight.

OK, is it just me or did everyone see the idiot on the wrong side of the road and THEN RUN RIGHT THROUGH THE STOP SIGN!!!!! Surely he keeps a sharp eye out for bikers though. What the F@$# Chuck!!!!
