We are still talking about making a few for sale. There are two unknowns:

1. Will it work as expected? - no drone, no change in oem feel/sound, but controllable/loud noise when open
2. Can we charge enough to make it worth our (ahem, Sam's) while? (parts costs is around $900, then shipping, then labor. Initial #'s come back at about $3-3500 to make it worth the effort, and we would have to work out a core charge or system for creating them. We obviously cant buy new oem exhausts to mod, so we'd have to either do one at a time, or get a group buy of some kind where we mod a few at once. I'd think turn around time might be a few weeks). If people are interested in this, let me know.


Thanks for all of the nice comments so far!
