They do make a quiet core but you should repack it first. you would be amazed at the difference it makes to do it. it should never be 106 dbs. they are made to be 95 dbs. that is a huge difference. anyhow i will look for the link real quick but the core is pretty expensive. you can also get different caps to help reduce sound output and such but which one to use is beyond me. i make my own out of a washer and a pipe about 5 inches long. then i drill some holes in it to help it flow a little better out the sides along with helping to break more of the waves. if it helps that or not is r and d that i cant do but the principle is there. it does make it quieter but it makes it pop a bit more depending on the length of the pipe and how many holes. i did some experimenting a while back to find this stuff out but i am not sure of the exact sizes that sound good since i never actually wrote anything down.

if you go to the main menu and type in quiet core then go to the bottom there are different caps and everything you can choose from.

i use the moose stuff and it seems to work pretty good for about 40 hours of riding then it starts to get loud again. that is what moose says it is suppose to last though. he could have used the wrong stuff from fmf too. there is stuff for 2 strokes that i dont think you can use for 4 strokes but i guess maybe you can. fiberglass strips are probably your best bet since you can pack it really tight in there. the moose is just a sewed together set of fiber glass that you slide on, slide the card board out of the middle once it is on the screen inside then slide the canister back on again. it is easy to change but is still 20 bucks or so to do every now and again. this is why i started to make my own cores. they break sooner or later from the rattling with the thin metal to hold it in. once it starts to get loud i put it in there and can get a bit more out of the fiber before i replace it. steve

I bought one for my 3.5" T4 and it sounded like shiit! Made it higher pitched. I took it right out.

Never trust a sales pitch, open it up and check the packing.
