While snowmobile manufacturers go to painstaking lengths to squeeze every available ounce of horsepower out of engines; engineers have their hands tied when it comes to shedding the weight from emission regulated exhaust systems.

This is where aftermarket exhaust companies like MBRP can play a pivotal role in dropping significant pounds while increasing performance with modest horsepower gains along with delivering a crisper throttle response and an overall better sounding package.

MBRP’s latest performance exhausts are for the highly anticipated and sought after Arctic Cat 600 C-TEC2 engine in the CATALYST chassis. The exhausts are constructed from T304 stainless steel and are Tig welded. The Race and Trail exhausts are also fitted with laser cut brackets for precise fit, thereby making it easy to slip the exhaust into place using hand tools and existing exhaust springs.

The RACE exhaust (P/N: 2390316), featuring a more aggressive sound is targeted to closed course racing and mountain riding applications. It relies solely on the performance exhaust core and sheds an impressive 16 pounds from the stock muffler while increasing horsepower by an additional 3 HP.

The TRAIL Exhaust (P/N: 239T114), with its more moderate and trail-friendly tone has an additional chamber core compared to the Race exhaust and shaves off 12 pounds while delivering a 1 horsepower increase.

While evaluating the TRAIL exhaust our test riders commented on the crisper throttle response that really comes to life past three quarter throttle along with the signature and pleasing MBRP exhaust note that enhances the deeper tone of the 600 C-TEC2.

MBRP prides itself on high performance exhausts that stand up to the harshest environments and offers a 2-year full coverage warranty on all its snowmobile exhausts.

MBRP offers a full line of OEM replacement exhausts as a performance upgrade. All exhausts are designed to OEM specs for fitment but come with the added benefits of horsepower gains, significant weight reductions, increased throttle response, improved low end torque and of course a sweet sounding exhaust note.

New for 2018 are mufflers for Arctic Cat sleds equipped with the 800 C-Tec2 motor. Available in both a trail and race can design both exhausts are build from durable 304 stainless steel with precise laser cut brackets as well as offering considerable weight savings.

MBRP exhausts are very easy to install and are super durable. The trail can increases the horsepower output of your 800 DSI by an honest 1hp, not a whole lot but MBRP found the DSI required increased backpressure to maintain optimal performance and therefore built that into the design of the trail can. All brackets are laser cut and the decibel level meets sound requirements where exhaust modifications are allowed on trails.

The biggest news though is the weight savings this can drops a whopping 11 pounds of fat which would otherwise take thousands of dollars to do by swapping out hardware on your sled with aftermarket titanium or carbon fiber. In the crossover and mountain markets 11 pounds is huge!

MBRP is the official exhaust of the CSRA snocross series and their C-Tec2 Race exhaust is recommended for competition use.

It is all kinds of wonderful when you squeeze the throttle with a crisp and fast throttle response that lets others know exactly where you are. The horsepower numbers stay true at 1hp increase but the weight savings goes even deeper with an extra two pounds, which makes for a total of 13 pounds of weight savings.

If you are racing or running high altitude shedding 13 pounds is not just significant it’s incredible.
