show the clip is it much louder in a kawi than on a yami
id like a throatier or loud ski
but on my lake it draws too much attention from the rangers and then it costs me money
if i were in surf id have it but ill keep mine to dual with a stock box

well i am sorry you were sooo embarrassed for me, only can i give you my sincerest deepest apology for embarrassing you in such a terrible way. (sarcasm intended)
pats ski was loud, so was the WCF ski, and also the trinity ski, obviously they are full competition boats, BUT they were riding the same place i was. why did you not single them out? why are you not embarrassed by them? sure they were throwing rolls and stuff, and i was just tuning my ski, but they were still riding a LOUD jet ski on public waters.
honestly i am done here, to each his own, where i ride people are not bothered by noise, if people were, my ski would not be so loud. (i am not a total dick like some think) i know most of the people on my lake and they also run loud skis...
its the outsiders who come in that mind, people from jersey and new york (no offense to the jersey and new york folk) come in and think they run they place. they rip around the lake with no direction, and there are so many of them its dangerous on the weekends when they are there, so by my ski being loud maybe it wil drive them away..........

The time will come when everyone jokes on all the superjet X-Metal waterbox users just like we all(including the XMetal fans) do now with ANY other boat/waterbox. It's a fad and if almost anyone else marketed it, no one would buy it. Pat's cool and does backflips. That equals cool. IMO it's a solution looking for a problem.:biggthumpup:

oh and for the record, i have a TDR waterbox with front exhaust mostly for the weight savings, plus it cleans up the inside of my boat alot. i knew it would make it louder, but i was mainly for teh savings of weight.....some of us start out our lives at a 60 lb or so disadvantage, and we all know weight is free horsepower.

I am not worried about it now I already got rid of mine. I know how loud it was. I can't think of anybody even other standup riders that have rode with me that thought my exhaust sounded good. But it would be an interesting test.

the benefit of this product is:
1. lighter than stock
2. front/dual exhaust ready..no welding, no "extra" parts needed..
3. adds a deeper, although slightly louder than stock sound when plumbed properly
:beerchug:
I ran a TDR front exhaust only and there is NOTHING louder...we did a test of my boat vs. crackers front only XMW and you coudnt even hear the XMW over the TDR at idle...
in the ocean it makes ZERO difference...in bays or lakes it can make the difference between being left alone, or being a target..granted, like you say..there are going to be some places where it makes no difference one way or the other
thats EXACTLY what my crew always said when I ran the TDR....

KX's ski has some volume, but no more than Pats, Steves or the Trinity boat. Bob's a good mellow guy...but likes to fire up you blue bloods online.
