looks like descent prices. however i have never used or heard of them

 

I have , a drive shower, great product you get everything you need to install, drill bits, the whole deal.
Had it on in less than 30 mins. fit great .

 

Both myself, and Ship4brians have the Hardin Marine Tips. I am pretty happy with them.

We got them off Ebay, but I think the prices are the same.

 

Have you ever used the slip in mufflers?

I love the open exhaust but somtimes it would be nice to pop in some mufflers and be able to carry on a conversation while cruisin.

When its just the wife and I, pull the mufflers back out (I'd rather hear the engine)

 

I actually just installed the tips this winter, so I havn't even fired it up yet, but Mike (ship4brains) put his on last winter, and used them all summer.

He bought the slip in silceners. I don't think he used them much at all. He said they did quiet it down some, but he liked it better with out them. I'm sure he will chim in when he sees this.

 

For your sake, get the slip-ins. I throw them in when boating on our smaller local lakes where the locals tend to get a little uppity about the volume. I keep em out on the big lake ( LOTO ) as my 496, even with open exhaust sounds like a moped compaired to the big boats.

They do quiet the boat down some....not as quiet as the factory Corsa mufflers that came with the boat ( i couldn't fart through those things ) but they do help. I'm not sure of the DB output with them in or out....

 

The slip ins shown on that site appear to be identical to the pair I have. Cheap insurance if they help keep your boat legal.


The internal flappers on the hardin marine tips are rubber and are said to not be noisey. BS. The first time I fired my boat up with the new tips in, I thought I lost a wrench in the engine somewhere....don't let this scare you. This only happens the first seconds of running the engine. Once water flows out the exhaust they are then quiet.

 

Do you guys have any pics after the tips were installed?

Did you go with the 6 1/2" or 10"?

I can't decide if I want the angled or the straight tips.

 

I went with angled....shorter length.

 

Angled shorter length for me too.

By the way the drive showers came from Wicked Marine,they work great

 

I got the exhaust tips from Oneil Performance, I think they were $55.00 each,they sound Good

Something I like about the Hardin tips....THEY ARE EASY TO KEEP CLEAN. After a year of use and many hours on the water, they still look like new. All I use to clean them is 50/50 vinegar and water. The Corsa tips were sumbeaches to clean...I don't know why the Hardin tips are easier....lime and gunk wipes right off with vinegar and water mixture

 

I have the corsa tips I like them and the customer service is great.

 

Here is how they sound
