Hi Guys, I have a Supertigre S3250 engine & I wish to install it inverted but I'm having problems finding a suitable inverted muffler or tunedpipe/canister

I need a muffler with 45mm mounting center, same as BGX
The plane has a canister tunnel so I can use a canister kit or even a tuned pipe kit once I can get a header with the required mount

Anyone knows of a canister or tuned pipe kit that can fit the st 3250 or OS BGX ?
What options are out there?


thanks

Many folks simply use a aluminum beer bottle for a canister muffler. I have my own stash of empty aluminum beer bottles ready for use when I get around to it too.
They usually have the aluminum souviner bottles out in the Superbowl team cities each year or other special big events like the world series, etc. But right after the game ends, they have the retailers send all the unsold bottles back to the brewer.
Mac's and some others sell the tuned pipe headers.

Another option from a fellow Canadian. These are high quality mufflers, sized for your engine so there will be no tank pressure or overheating issues.

Thanks for the Info on the Alum Beer bottle canister, I should Look into this as I'm hoping to quiet down the engine.

Thanks, I had searched on tower for the inverted kind, this one wasn't there.. so thanks for your info, most likely I will end up using this. Do you have an idea if these short mufflers dampen the sound enough? I have never used these kind as yet!

Re, I have not used the inverted but have a couple of the Pitts style and the Sport style both take the sharp edge off the sound and make it more mellow.
