Silent or violent!

If you want to make noise/ psychological speed, drill 3 x 10mm holes into the exhaust passage, above the cav plate each side of your lower unit. Tap them for some set screws and you can make noise or shut it up as you feel.

Alan

BTW, the noise does get a bit much after a few hrs. But it sounds COOL
