staintune muffler
Hi, Would anyone have a solitary or extra staintune for the left side on a Paso or 907? Mine has a dent that is right in the line of sight and came that way. I think they are out of business or maybe making just a few for late model stuff.Thanks Arch.

Re: staintune muffler
maybe a body shop is able to pull out the dent?

Hi G, trouble is around here they would just use a slide hammer, drill a hole and pull it out and I think stain tune internals were all welded on the inside so making it difficult to do anything to the inside. Arch.

Re: staintune muffler
Arch, I was thinking about a similar method where the pins are glued on instead of drilling holes. However, if such a repair is possible at all depends a lot on the size and shape of the dent.
Have you tried to contact Ed Milich at ducpower.com. Maybe he has a used one.

He's got a set for sale on ebay right now but wants 544 usd I believe so don't quite want one that badly!! Ed has gotten very expensive lately. I've got a friend who is a retired body man and use to weld pins on panels, pull the dent out and grind the pin down so might be able to do that and polish it out since they are stainless.Arch.
