Within the next week I will be buying a 15 m8000 and I'm just wondering what exhausts work best with these sleds and why you think so. I'm just looking for your opinions to help me pick what i should buy. Thanks.

I have talked with a few different dealers, read a few threads, and done some research and I think that the best couple of options are the SLP, HPS, Speedwerx L2, or Diamond S. Some like bikeman but they have a bad reputation for fudging their numbers aswell. I talked with my dealer and they said they've cut a bikeman M8 can and a bikeman Skidoo can in half and found the cores to be the exact same. This isn't good because each engine needs different back pressure. SLP, HPS, Speedwerx, and diamond S have good sounds, not too obnoxious and do not loose hp. I think ive narrowed it down to speedwerx, and hps. Not sure which one yet though. Hope this helps! Just my 2 cents

Best exhaust in my opinion is a straight pipe coming off the Turbo! LOL Marcel give me a call at the shop if you have not decided where to buy your Cat yet.

Not to sure about the pro climbs but it's the same motors as the m series and I've always been a big fan of d&d products great build quality and sound so they always get my vote

Ive heard really good stuff about jaws, hps, GGB and diamond s. I had a jaws on my 2010 and it worked great! Loud as hell though lol. I ended up putting diamond s on my 15 HCR, fit and finish on it is awesome, sounds great idling but wont know much till the snow flies, its fully baffled instead of packed so it wont burn out, a third party test claims a 4hp gain and 18lb loss but i wont know any more till the snow flies! Thats what ive heard for good ones, hope it helps.

I have a CPC can on my 12 proclimb and it works great. I wouldn't hesitate putting one on a new cat. So far I have about 2000km on it and it sounds great. not too loud, sounds almost stock at idle and has a nice buzz when WOT.

I think he was asking full exhaust?? I agree with Jaws if you are going full exhaust. If it's just a can; then it mostly comes down to what kind of sound you are looking for. I don't believe any of the BS about any can making any noticeable gains on the snow.

Yeah and most of the time with only a can you loose torque from loss of back pressure.

I just bought a TSS Pipe Kit for my 2014 Sno Pro, cant wait to get it installed and try it out. TSS claims significant hp gains, and they say it just rocks and you dont have to run a fuel controller with it, I think with the jaws and SLP you do.
