I currently have 2X Titanium Supersports, which I find too loud, and they're annoying my neighbors.

I talked to Alison Hindle, and she suggested I swap the cores to the Stealth muffler core and can even add their noise reducer inserts as well.

Has anyone gone from the Supersports to the Stealth? Big difference?

Has anyone used their extra inserts?

Thanks.

LOL,, you should keep it all as is and have Alison talk to your neighbors!
 
Here is the ECU that came with the bike.

Hindle 4 into 2 Exhaust System with Modified Air Box Version 2: https://guruedgear.com/ecu-re-flash-service-hindle-4-into-2-with-mab-ver-2.html

I'm waiting to hear back from their crew to see what the impact may be with this flash and the exhaust swap.

Hello,
I am thinking to get a Hindle 4-2 with the same Gurued flash as you have (https://guruedgear.com/ecu-re-flash-service-hindle-4-into-2-with-mab-ver-2.html), but the Hindle 4-2 they have listed looks different from yours :

Do you know if these new mufflers are going to be overly loud as well?
And I am confused by the description saying " VMX17 V-Max equipped with 4 into 2 Cross Rear Tube Mid Pipe (Hindle/Brocks Style) Exhaust System". Does this mean I need to buy a cross mid pipe separately?

There are many choices available through Hindle. Give them a call and discuss your questions and concerns. The mufflers you linked to are the Evolution Series, which have a tear-drop cross-section. Mine are oval. https://www.hindle.com/road-race/mufflers

I detailed some sound info on my mufflers here: https://www.vmaxforum.net/threads/hindle-sound-level-comparison.53866/#post-539693

The mufflers are a simple slip-on. If you have a stock setup now, I believe you'll have to remove the stock exhaust chamber 2S3-14701-00-00, but there might be some stub pipes out there that allow you to retain it if you want to. It's a big hunk of metal that you'll likely be happy to be rid of.

My bike came with a titanium exhaust setup, so I only had to remove one bolt and the springs to change the mufflers.
