RE: best muffler for da-50
If noise is not an issue to your field, go with the DA muffler and tap the smoke fitting on it. The slimline pitt is less noisy than DA but you're gonna loose 200-300RPM over the DA for the same prop.
I know i have the Slimline and i am going to replace it with a canister shortly.

RE: best muffler for da-50
I sell 3 good DA-50 mufflers.
The Slimline makes good power and is loud.
Bisson power is similar, less noisy.
Bisson quiet is, as you may have guessed, quieter with a small loss of power. The Bissons are easier to mount because the pipes exit at the rear of the cowl.

I know you got to chop the cowl up for the stock DA muffler, but I switched back to it after a year of the Slimline Pitts. 300 rpm gain on a Mejzlik 22x10 prop and weighing 6 oz. LESS was too much to pass up.

My Slimline weighs 8.9 ounces. So if yours weighs 6 oz less that puts it at 2.9 ounces? Wow if so that is light.

On my scale, Da muffler 5 oz. Slimline Pitts no smoke 11 oz.

Ahh must be that extra bracket for the Slimline and the mounting bolts. That would add up to another two ounces.
That DA muffler is still very light. Is it loud?
