Default Aeroturbine

Just ordered a 4" aeroturbine muffler to replace the huge Donaldson truck muffler on my 92. It was recomended by a fuel shop and has good reviews. Anybody have experience with them?

I remember the good times when they came out and were decried by 90% of the DTR population as snake oil, then everybody got a whole bunch of feet in their mouths when they turned out to work well.

It's supposed to be the best muffler around, for those willing to pay the extravagant price for something exotic.

I have no first hand experience though, no...

I do, and mine is outstanding! Everybody at the dyno asks what kind of exhaust I have. Quite the compliment in my opinion.

The price is up there, but I put off buying it for a couple years at 199 plus shipping. But now you can get them for 179$ free shipping and a 25$ gift card off ebay....made it a little easier.

They sound great and really do work.

Personally - no way I would have a muffler on a 1st gen. They just sound too good without. Love mine!

Straight pipe is the only way to go!
