[QUOTE="Magnetoman, post: 106482, member: 2806"] Yes, sort of. The blanket extends the exhaust, just as an added section of pipe would, but unlike a pipe it collapses on itself to become a one-way valve if the flow tries to reverse. It's provides a "universal" solution, i.e. it's OK but not ideal. I have three Gold Stars so the header to which I welded a bung is an ideal solution for them. I suspect the law they fear violating is ITAR - International Traffic in Arms Regulations. You may not think bolts for rear sets are weapons, but the regulations are a, well, minefield. Leaving the U.S. with a variety of widely-available commercial software on our laptops is considered illegal trafficking in arms. [/QUOTE]
