Default budlight mousse can mufflers

made these last summer. look 's like pepsi getting in on some r/c action also. i gained about 1000 rpm on my motors ranging from a .50 - 1.20 size and they are much quieter than stock muffler . J-B weld kwik works awsum . the fx .91 in the yak puts a saito 1.00 to shame .

They must only sell those cans up north, because I have never seen one down here in the stores.

Regional marketing is normal. Maybe we'll see those cans some time later.

What's the expander tool for? How far does the header extend into the muffler can ?

I think the large volume of the can coupled with the small diameter of the header didn't work well on my .42 but the throttle response was awesome. And the sound.

. 67" fusion. webra p-5 .91 . macs pro extra long header pipe. bud-light mousse can. chin yak . webra p-5 .55 macs pro long header pipe . budweiser mousse can . these mousse cans crank out power and sound like gas motors.

Nice work. Why did you use the three tubes nested together for the stinger?

Is it safe to assume that the stinger (exhaust) barely projects into the can? Bascially that there is minimal internal piping within the can?

for different motors, i have a bunches of 2 st motors form .55 -1.20 .the .55 uses a 1/4" stinger tube , the 1.20 uses a 5/16 stinger tube . i make all my budlight mousse cans with a 5/16" stinger tube and sleve down the stinger tube for the size of motor i'am going to use . a universal mousse can . you need a 9/32 " sleve to reduce from 5/16" down to 1/4" .

i flare the end of the stinger tube and pass it in through the mouth end of the bottle with a 4-40 rod , JB weld it in from the inside and then the outside . never had one loosen up .
