There may be an engine issue come the summer months. They will be holding in a lot of heat in the engine compartment, kinda like club car did with the precedent model. Time will tell.
Just changing the muffler may not give you the results you desire.
I may be in error here but my precedent motor got so hot it would seize up and I had to wait a few minutes to let it cool down before I resumed my travels . the motor just ran hot and the larger the motor the more likely it will seize up. I changed out the motor to a smaller one , then lost horse power and sold it for a gas cart.
