BCM muffler question
ZDZ-40, cut 1/2" off ends and picked up at least 700 rpm. Major difference in power.
Louder, but not annoying in any way.
Another way is to cut the tubes to about 3/4" in length, then slip silicone tubing over them to extend to original length. This is a little bit quieter (not much) but you will not bend tubes if you nose over.
