polaris336 Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 I am wondering if my T-5 headers will work together with my stock silencers? The reason I ask this dumb question... The place we are supposed to be going to this weekend requires a sound check and needs a spark arrestor. Its too late in the week for me to order a Toomey Hush kit so this is my last resort. This is the last weekend I will have to go riding until next spring, all the fun places close for Deer season then snowmobiling. SO PLEASE SOMEONE LET ME KNOW ASAP. I would go check myself but my Banshee isn't at my house! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dekker Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 Ill bet you could do it if you cut some off the stock silencer and put a piece of high temp hose in between. Probably not look the best but I think it would get er done Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sled Posted October 17, 2007 Report Share Posted October 17, 2007 No, they dont fit, maybe if you cut them like dekker said. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey the t5's will work with the stock silencers, but you need to cut off about an inch and a half off of the silencer as the stock silencer will not fit into the toomey pipe and is too long. I also used high temp silicone tubing as someone already posted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

polaris336 Posted October 30, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 30, 2007 hey guys, I never got back to reply to this thread. Everything worked out. I like someone said I had to cut the silencers and use high temp silicone hose. It got me through the sound check, everyone that worked there where betting that I wouldn't make it in. It passed with flying colors, 89 decibels!! My banshee ran just about the same, there was a little bogging on the bottom end but still screamed on the top end. I will purchase myself a Hush kit this winter, I kinda liked having quiet exhaust. Thanks for the tips guys!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nitmare67 Posted October 31, 2007 Report Share Posted October 31, 2007 What do you mean? I ment that the jetting was a little off because were went up about 2000' from normal. Still ran good though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
answ3r Posted January 3, 2012 Report Share Posted January 3, 2012 (edited) I ment that the jetting was a little off because were went up about 2000' from normal. Still ran good though Did you check back your jetting at your "normal" altitude ? I'm asking because I just picked up some T5 and I'd like to use the stock silencers because where I live there is sometimes cops in the trails and the give tickets to loud exhaust so I'd like to get by with black t5 headers and stock silencers. I'm also wondering where I should start jetting. P.S. I just noticed I dug out a really old thread, but I think it's still relevant so anybody feel free to comment...
