15" Factory can - To cut or not to cut the snout - that is the question
My boat is going back together (hopefully soon) with a 15" factory mid. I always hated that the exhaust outlet was under water when moving at idle, so I'm contemplating cutting the turn down snout off like a champ mid. I know a bunch of guys have done it, so I'm hoping to get some feedback.
What's the good, bad and ugly about this? I know it will be a bit noisier at idle and I don't mind a bit. I love that sound. Thoughts?Keith-

Cut that f_cker off. Save the piece you cut in case you ever want to have it welded back on. It makes no performance difference either way.

Sold the Scarab...putting the STV back together. Leaning towards cutting it. Gotta hear the snarl cruising the channel in Havasu.
