i have a D&D exhaust can that has been loud for a very long time. i finally bought packing to repack it, but there wasnt any

anyway while the can is off the bike im thinking of cutting it down a little bit. i have seen it done on here but cant find the link. can someone tell me a step by step?

pretty much my biggest concern is the carbon can it be cut?

Yea, I cut mine with angle grinder. Not a problem.

Cutting the can? or the pipes? I think the headers are two long for the S4. Looks 1e6 times better with shorter exhaust.

Is 1e6 a lot? :razz:

When you're cutting the exhaust you really want to wear a mask or ideally a ventilator - the dust from cutting carbon fiber is not stuff you want in your lungs.

Looking forward to seeing pics!

Haha, I was sitting in engineering class and was thinking "a million times." Missed that one. If you get carbon in your lungs, then they start to act as a HEPA filter of sorts lol. But yea, wear a mask.

Trust me, angle grinder won't splinter it at all
