How to V-Mod your exhaust

Information

• The standard muffler has

Exhaust end Header end
2 baffles, and inner
(show) and an outer (to
be kept intact, not
shown)
• The inner baffle is
welded into the muffler at
both ends.
Inner Baffle • This mod will deal with
how to remove only the
inner baffle from the
STOCK muffler.
Step 1 exhaust end

1. Remove mufflers
2. Insert in vice. Wrap with
soft cloth to protect
chrome body.
3. Start at exhaust end.
4. Use a steel hole cutter 3”
size, with a wooden
dowel fitted as shown.
Insert dowel into the hole
at exhaust end. (it will
keep cutter centred.)
Information
1. The cut is not deep,
simply until you are
through the back plate of
your muffler.
2. The dowel fits inside the
exit hole to keep cutter in
the centre.

Information
• The reason for the drilled
holes is to eventually
allow the exit of the
whole baffle out of the
hole you are creating.
50mm
220mm • The baffle is wider than
the hole you are making
so it will later be made
bigger using a die grinder
or dremmel tool.
Step 2 header end

1. On the header side of

the muffler, use a 1 ¾”
hole cutter to cut through
the weld where the inner
baffle is attached to this
end.
2. Consider using a wood
dowel on the end on the
1 ¾” hole cutter to keep
it centred. See below.
3. The cut will be relatively
shallow before the baffle
is freed.

Information
1. This is where the inner
baffle was cut out using
the hole saw.

Step 3 exhaust end

widened to allow the
removal of the inner
baffle.

2. Consider using a dremel
and then dressing hole
with a metal file until you
get the desired oval
shape.
Warning 3. Note: WARNING the
outer baffle is close to
Outer Baffle
where you are working
DO NOT damage it.
Information
1. The hole can now be
cleaned up and made
into an oval shape that
follows the line of the
outer edge of the muffler.
