Here's a pic of the XMetal waterbox , installed. Note the turf to add some quieting to it. Pretty clean as the T is part of it, rather than clamped on.

its just when running a front exhaust that its louder, but its not any louder than any ski with front exhaust.

They make the ski sound powerful but I am not a big fan of the noise level. If you get 5 ski's out there it gets a bit annoying. Maybe it is the combo with the front exhaust that makes it louder. I am running a FP aluminum waterbox and front exhaust only and I absoloutly love it. Gives a nice clean tone to the exhaust, lets you know it is not an ordinary ski but also does not make you cringe.

Sorry Pete........I guess 25 is old :haha:

LOL, I bet your boat is louder than mine. The new Xmetal box has the nicest smooth, non-raspy noise.. it is awesome.. a ski with a FP box and only front exhaust is louder than mine.. My buddy runs about the same setup with a bigbore behind it and it is higher pitched and a little louder..
but only front exhaust is more annoying... :cool2: :haha: :biggthumpup:

I understand this'll sound like a nit-picky question but is there a way to route the front exhaust tube w/o removing all the front foam? My ski already floats with just about 3" exposed when submerged. I'm petrified of it completely sinking if I remove any more buoyancy or add any more weight...

Got my exhaust kit. What did you guys use to mount the exhaust outlet to the ski? Mine did not come with any hardware. I have not tried to put it in so I don't know how it will fit down in there, but it looks like you could run the tube without taking the foam out, is this correct?
