Good call Justin after more research it does seem like it is just for the 2 strokes. And yep like they said that's just the baffles your seeing. You should really see about patching that hole. Its a lot cheaper than replacing the muffler

I replaced my muffler with the performence muffler from Plowmans at the same time I rejetted the carb

My problem is I have to keep the cart as quiet as possible because very few campgrounds around here allow gas carts. I am actually gonna put an old charge port on mine and move the choke knob to the dash in hopes of pulling a fast one on them. I have yet to hear of an aftermarket muffler that was more quiet than the stock. If yall have any ideas on making it quieter I'm up for ideas

So Curti, Plowmans says " All of our exhaust systems will increase horse power, have better acceleration and have a quiet but interesting exhaust note. "

What does that mean? Is it louder? If so, how much louder? I assume it sounds 'cool'!

I am in the same boat. Cannot have a loud cart, or the campground owners will get pizzed.

You can barely hear it.
That and the bigger jet definitely helped.
Great bottom end and mid range

But compared to a stock muffler is it louder????? I would hate to have to turn the stereo way up to drown the sound of the motor...... Wait no I wouldn't

Oh and I decided today was a good day to tackle the underside of the cart. Check to see how bad the rust was and make sure there wasn't any wiring issues. This is a pic after passing a wire wheel, a couple of welds, cleaning up the wiring, and prime and paint. Nothing but surface rust except the battery box. Totally rotted out.

I would say the gravel under the tires, makes more noise than the exhaust

Man, I hate seeing a golf cart in that position! Just doesn't seem right!
