Anyone run a bomb or exhaust that’s not stock and dosent need to be repacked? My S10 loves to blow out exhaust cans and I really don’t feel like repacking every year.

All silencers sold as an accessory, use the same configuration (perforated inner pipe and absorbent material to trap certain notes of noise from the exhaust) ... "factory" silencers are generally "resonance boxes", which do not never need to be repackaged ...
If you have an oem muffler, and if it can remove the dbkiller, you can do like me. It's a “thick” exhaust note, but only when it's in the “torque” line… .then it's just a little louder than the oem. It is a 2.5 ”stainless steel curve.

I would be interested to see more on this mod. Any more pictures of the process??

No, there are no pics of the process. But it is simple, so as not to break anything, you simply have to cut a metal base the same as the one with the original exhaust outlet, weld the curve to the base (TIG, better) and screw it back in, using the oem gaskets. More than 2.5 ”do not fit in the hole of the exhaust. You just have to be careful to orient it a little downwards and a little to the left, so as not to "cook" the turn signal

I already cooked it, it’s been held out of the way by a bunji cord for a year with some sweet Aluminum tape covering the hole. I have a brand new takeoff to put on but two young kids keep me from doing maintenance.

. . . . It's a “thick” exhaust note, but only when it's in the “torque” line… .then it's just a little louder than the oem. . . .
1) Have you ever heard a YZ450F on full grunt? 2) If so, is that what yours sounds like? 'Cuz, I love that bike's sound.

if you have an exhaust with removable dbkiller, just remove it, and go out and test it. The silencer oem has a bigger hole, and the note is thicker still… .but it points directly to the turn signal, but in a simple test it does not represent a danger of cooking it.
On a wr450 I had, I released the exhaust, but the note was not as thick as on the S10.
doesn't sound like a V-engine either, because the 270-degree crankshaft doesn't make each explosion so noticeable…. The best I can contribute is that it is “only” heard at the torque revolutions… when you're cruising, it's minimally above the original sound. "Backfires", yes ... they appear, but they are soft explosions that do not become "explosions" ... and in certain situations of "reductions". the best I can contribute is having traveled alongside a 1290 with akrapovic… and crossing at 140 km / h… my S10 only emitted a sound that did not bother due to the exhaust… .and the 1290, disturbed the sound going to the even and going backwards. I asked the 1290 driver if he felt "my exhaust" and he answered that no, only when accelerating
the part of the “resonance box” is not modified, and it continues to fulfill the task of preventing the high notes from coming out behind, by eliminating the dbkiller, it increases the sound, but not the high notes that are neutralized inside the box resonance. It is not the same as removing the dbkiller on a perforated inner tube type silencer… .in this case, when removing the dbkiller, it lets all the exhaust notes pass through the back, including those notes that are “annoying” to the ears.

And, I was wrong about the 450. It was a YZ426 that I loved the exhaust note on. Br-a-a-a-a-p.
