I dont know if you can do it with the stock exhaust but all you do is cut it 5 0r 6 inches back from the tip and re-tap it. Thats what i heard but search it to make sure im correct

not sure if either of the last two replies were actually necessary.. :rolleyes:

anyway, making a shorty out of the stock exhaust is not really possible, because it is a chambered silencer, as opposed to the straight through design that most aftermarkets use. to be honest, i don't understand why people like shorties. they look kind of weird and stubby to me, don't add any power, and just make the exhaust that much more annoying.
