Ideal for those seeking a quick and budget-friendly upgrade, Can-Am Maverick R slip-on exhaust systems primarily alter the sound and can offer slight performance improvements.
These offer significant enhancements in power and torque. They are a comprehensive upgrade but require a larger investment and more complex installation. These can be often viewed as cat-back, axle-back, and header-back exhaust system upgrades
Axle-back systems improve sound and aesthetics, replacing components from the rear axle to the exhaust tips; the simplest, cost-effective upgrade within the more comprehensive world of full Can-Am Maverick R exhaust systems.
A Can-Am Maverick R cat-back system replaces everything from the catalytic converter to the muffler; improves sound, flow, and potential performance; moderately complex installation.
A header-back setup is a comprehensive replacement from the engine’s exhaust headers to the tailpipes; this setup maximizes performance gains but is also the most extensive and complex upgrade.
When selecting materials for aftermarket Can-Am Maverick R exhaust systems, you have to be aware that each offers distinct benefits, but with certain drawbacks. For example, stainless steel is prized for its durability and cost-effectiveness, though it's heavier than other options. Aluminum, in contrast, is lighter, offering efficient sound damping, but it might not match the long-term resilience of steel. Titanium stands out for its excellent strength-to-weight ratio and produces a unique sound quality, making it a premium choice. However, this comes at a higher price point, reflecting its superior characteristics and performance enhancements.
It’s always best to choose a system that delivers the desired sound while adhering to legal noise limits, especially if you want to make your Can-Am Maverick R street legal. If you don’t care about making your Maverick R streel legal, you should still be aware that overly noisy exhaust systems aren’t particularly popular with many trails with noise restrictions. Titanium systems tend to be louder, while aluminum offers a more subdued tone. Always check local and trail regulations regarding noise levels to ensure compliance.
