What exhaust for Polaris RMK 800 PRO?

[glowa]

I got the model 2014 Polaris 800 RMK PRO, bone stock yet, looking to lose some weight by changing the exhaust. I tried searching google and this forum and found no satisfactory answer to my question. There are several companies making exhausts for this sled, which one should I choose? I have a requirement that the exhaust would be very light, with definitely no necessary tuning of the ECU!! I can see there are carbon cans and also titanium, please help me make a good decision.

While I am already writing here maybe someone also has some experience with hooking up led headlights instead of these heavy and mostly useless headlights that come with RMK? I was thinking of putting something like this on the steering bar

opinions?

make sure you read mountainhorse"s threads about adding electrical accessories and headlight delete and understand them before throwing down your $, just a heads up

yeah I wondered already how to connect the led headlight since there is no battery on my sled thanks for the headsup

I found and read the Mountainhorse's thread here
http://www.snowestonline.com/forum/showthread.php?t=380258

in the light of this thread I am wondering if anyone knows how headlight led kit made by company SKINZ is connected? and if it is properly and safely connected to the sled?

For me it came down to the Aaen and Bikeman pipe. i chose Bikeman, mainly because there's a distributor nearby, so cost was considerably lower.
Power output (via testing by Jim @DTR) was close enough that cost became the deciding factor for me.

after a lot of searching I found a Diamond S ti lite can, that is advertised at 2.6 lbs!! wow, can this number be trusted? anybody has anything bad to say about this exhaust? Does it lose power on the sled? No re-programming of the ecu/fuel controller blah blah required?

I put the Diamond S Ti lite can on my 13 Pro, it weighed 2# 15 oz. Runs very well think I actually picked up some RPM. It is loud compared to some. Took over 4 weeks to get it, so if you are in a hurry make sure to call and check availability. I already have a BD box on mine so it was not an issue for me.

never ran one on a pro but did on an xm and they are light. On the cat they gained 5 horse when dynotech did a report. Diamond s has my vote and will be putting one on a pro this year.

Diamond s also has a quiet can, 3.6lbs. I just put one on mine but haven't run yet.

MBRP trail can all the way. Only expected weight loss but I am sure it gave a bump in HP as it is a bit less restrictive. Some will say no can does that but side by side comparison says so.

I run dynoprt pipe and mbrp can. I had to add 2 grams to the clutching when I added the pipe.
As far as led lighting goes I'm running a similar light to what you posted from cyclops
It was easy to install and it came with everything needed for installation. I welded a piece of aluminium to the cross bar and then mounted it to that.

I went with the GGB mountain can. Its louder but not extremely loud until you hold her wide open. Saved a bunch of weight and Graham is a great guy to deal with.

What he said.

Skinz super q here. Quiet enough below 6000 rpm to roll thru anywhere to keep the noise down, makes a lot of noise up top though. Very light high quality welds and ceramic coating.

 

[rmk01r1der]

HPS gets my vote.

 

[KTG151]

Anyone run Bikeman exhaust cans on their Pros? I was trying to get feedback and see if any tuning was needed by adding one.

 

[pindallout]

I run a Skinz Super-Q. Love it. Also, liked the fact that I got it for 100.00 less than the HPS Can which was my other choice. Great product in my opinion.

 

[2005summitX]

Bikeman is LOUD on the pros unless you get the trail version. IMO it is way too loud.

Really surprized with the Twin Core from Aaen for noise. Mechanics ears lol, decibel tool can't tell much difference from and SLP (probably the quietest).

Only rap raaapin in a shop though. Might get a road ride in on the weekend but it's still hunting season around here.

REro exhaust options

We are looking at stocking the Diamond-S cans as they offer some of the best weight saving opportunity you can get.
My initial impression based on a 500yd.lap around my shop in 12"of snow is that they are extremely quiet and should stay that way as there is no packing to burnout of the inside
