Hello RM

We uses muffler sold with the engine. But it is too noisy. We are looking for a cheap canister or exhaust tuned pipe.
Claude, the Mintor 38cc is all aluminum and is reasonably priced. I paid around 115$ US for mine purchased from the Area 51 UK distributor. The header is the same as used on the OS140RX which Tower sells for about 50$ US. It needs a little modification to fit the PTE36 (I have a PTE36 also and it will go into a Vanquish ).

I am curious as to which prop you are using on the PTE36
That OS140RX header lists for $75.99 at Tower. Going to try this from Troybuilt $35.00:

Going to try either the DLE 35R or PTE36 with an ES 40cc carbon pipe in an old Piedmont Focus II as a test bed. Both engines appear to be about equal in weight. Not sure which to go with yet...leaning toward the DLE. I was looking to do something similar with the Vanquish also....How do you plan to work the pipe into it? Did a L'Essence some years ago and had to mold a Carbon Fiber pipe tunnel ....maybe something similar would work on the Vanquish.
