2013 Stelvio
Bonafide Bob:
I am a new owner of a 2013 Stelvio. I would like to get an exhaust without the cat converter and get it to breath a little better, from what I understand when I change the exhaust and breathing I will also need to download a different program. Any help and suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks Bob

If I were you, I'd ride it the way it is!!!! At least for a while. I think you'll find it performs very well the way it is as long as it's properly tuned. Once you start down that road it's a slippery slope, and quite expensive. I went that route with my '09 and the cost FAR outweighed the gain, IMHO. I've left my '14 alone and am very happy.

:+1 My thoughts exactly!! My '12 has 26K miles on it and it's bone stock. Right out of the box, properly tuned and maintained the NTX will perform very well for you.

I'd love to see some dyno results from changing the can on the Stelvio. My gut feel is that the gain is insignificant, if any at all. The only benefit is less weight. If you save 20# that's still not significant on a bike that weighs 650# or more. The stock setup works just fine for me. As I recall, Pete Roper has found that the common intake/exhaust mods actually yield less horsepower and torque.

Just got home from the dealer in Ohio. I brand new 2013 Stelvio snuck onto my trailer. ;D
