So it's time for a new exhaust on my gy6 150cc. Shopping around on eBay and it's looking around a $100. I'm seeing some short mufflers and some are being labeled as performance mufflers.
What's really the differences or advantages in these types?
I like the sound of performance but is it worth it or should I buy another stock?
I mean who doesn't like an educated buy??

howdy here's another opinion(that's all I have). the after market exhaust system can offer less back pressure which when properly rejetted and if the air intake can flow more air, will result in improved performance at heavy throttle. another advantage of most of them is reduced weight which is important on a scooter because the muffler weight is unsprung weight which carries a ride quality penalty. in other words the scooter will ride significantly better with a lighter muffler and accelerate faster etc. however, do some research to gather other peoples' opinions on that specific product.
lotsa miles and smiles to ya ken

I can speak only of the one I bought from scrappy's. Performance wise it's fine, the fit was easy, which if you look around most aftermarket mufflers are not plug and play. The sound is nice, not too loud, but a deeper throatier sound. It's listed under performance parts, and I have the $149.00 one. Hope that helps.
