Is there an unwritten rule for not giving prices on this site. Who gives the best price on the GGB's. The slip inns on my old boat also lost mph and speed. Restriction was so bad it warped the stainless pipe!

I would believe that about any slip-ins. Those are a radically different design. It's kind of like the old 'you get what you pay for' thing...

Biggus has a beautiful setup with his boat. He is one of the reasons I bought mine!

I think that Bob at FTM would make you the best deal. Sorry, but I can't post what I paid for them.

Best of luck Formula78 on getting your boat back in the water! It would be fun to meet up.

Anyone running the Gibsons?
At $499 shipping included (Trick Marine), it is a good deal. I am curious as to a comparison to the GGB mufflers.

Re: Mesa test mufflers power and speed claims

I dealt directly with Graham at GGB. Graham custom made a set of extreme clamp on for my stellings dry exhaust. They have turn downs welded on to reduce the noise at idle. I will be modifying the exhaust to dump water at the very end of the tale pipe. The engine idles at 109db, so this is the only way I think I'll past 90db without major power loss. I should know in a couple weeks, and I'll post a picture with the results ASAP.

BTW, stock clamp on run about a grand a pair.
