Wings slip-on muffler

I wasn't after big sound -- in fact, I've grown to like the quiet stealthiness of the OEM exhaust system. But I don't like the thermo-nuclear temperatures that radiate from the OEM muffler.

I ordered a Wings slip-on directly from the manufacturer's website after a brief exchange of emails with the owner, Gorazd Marovic. He's a very nice guy to deal with. Shipped from his factory in Slovenia, it arrived in Berlin just two days later.  €345 was the total price including shipping. The box contained:

• the muffler
• a short mid-pipe for attaching the muffler to the OEM header pipe
• two pipe clamps
• the muffler hanger clamp with rubber insert
• a small bottle of lube (for the rubber that sits between the hanger and the muffler body)
• a sticker sheet
• a T-shirt 

In my emails back and forth with Gorazd, I asked him to not apply the logo decal plate. Instead, he included it in the box so that I can stick it on myself if I want.

The install was pretty straightforward. I didn't keep track of time, but definitely not more than 30 minutes, and I wasn't rushing.

The OEM nuclear reactor core throws a lot of heat. 

It's also quite heavy... like an anvil. 

This is the baffle insert I decided to use. Sound volume isn't much different 

compared to the stock sound, but the pitch is noticeably deeper.

This is what the pipe clamps look like. I decided to swap out the bolts 

for some stainless steel ones. I had a bunch in my tickle trunk of nuts and bolts.

Installed. 

Here you can see the quiet baffle insert
