Mine is brown too (it was the painted version so no surprise) and you can see daylight through the two sets of perforated cones when brand new.

Thanks, Bill
 
Yes, I have two but they may be sharing the load, so was interested if any other single muffler use was having a problem.  I know Tracy has not, but then he's flying the Renesis which is undoubtedly easier on the mufflers.

Ed,

I have had my Hushpower installed for 200+ hours, and no problems.  I have the NA block with splitters, so I suspect that helps with the longevity issue.

Anyone else having a problem with the Hushpower II other than Jason?
 
I have two on my installation and they have worked fine (so far) and I have the turbo block without the exhaust splitters making for a pretty powerful exhaust pulse.
