Big Gun Packing
Question for you guys, I have had my big gun on for awhile now, well before i ever took out the quiet core i put a few hundred miles on it, then i took it out for a 10-15 mile ride, put it back in, put some more miles on it. Then when i went to take it out again some of the packing was packed against the end of the muffler all around the quiet core. Removed the packing just chillin there, then rode it, put that quiet core back in and last night i took it out again and there was more packing at the end of the muffler around the quiet core.. Is this normal? Has anyone else had this happen, or even taken out the quiet core? little help, kinda scared me, want to make sure notings wrong. Thanks in advance.

RE: Big Gun Packing
I have never had the quiet core out and don't plan on it. Messing around in there with things probably loosens things up. Packed from the factory is how mine will stay. It has high perf. packing in it already and it's louder than loud anyways, why mess with it in the first place? You won't get anymore performance removing the core, just more unnecessary loudness. It's your pipe though, mine's perfect and that's the way I intend on keeping it. If you want to be on the safe side, order some more packing and put it in where the other fell out and leave it alone. It's not like repacking is brain surgery.
That's just my opinion. Good luck.

i was worried at first also. i emailed big gun and they said it was normal and the insert made it worse bc of increased backpressure. they suggested repacking every 10 hours.
