I wonder why I didn't think of that - oh yeah - because we had to make it the right size to work in terms of noise and power - not just cut to fit the hole and block it - this is a total non issue - you just tighten it up but not so far that it pulls over - it's really not rocket science people...



Look dips**t no need to try and be condescending and make a lame excuse for poor workmanship. There is no reason not to make the outside dia. of the mounting part of the baffle actually fit the pipe. No reason to change the rest of the baffle. Pulling to one side like that puts stress in the pipe at the bolting point and likely to cause cracking over time due to the side force and vibration since nothing supports the other end. That isn't to say there should be any support on the other end but the O.D. of the mounting point should fit the pipe. Instead of being defensive fix the problem, it's just good business. I didn't say anything nasty to you above and was trying to be nice about it but you just pi$$ed me off with that "it's not rocket science" crap and that " I wonder why I didn't think of that - oh yeah - because we had to make it the right size to work in terms of noise and power " That is just plain BS the fitment of the outer part of the baffle has nothing at all to do with the power output or noise unless it's so bad that too much gas escapes past that part. The packing seems to prevent that. Next time don't try and make such a lame excuse to a guy who knows a little bit about how these things work. I still think you should make the mounting part fit the pipe, probably making excuses because you can't get an off the shelf baffle that will fit.
