Farmallkid, As long as you have your exhaust pipe a couple of inches taller than the hood, you arent going to hurt the tractor. Probably the only way you would hurt the tractor,is to run straight off the manifold with no extension pipe at all. My advice is that if you do add a straight pipe or chrome pipe, is to have it as tall as the muffler would have extended as it diminishes the amount of exhaust blowing back on you. The fumes on a W-9 can get pretty intensive. As to the noise factor, I chuckle here because the fatherly advice you are getting from everyone seems quite sanctimonious, given the fact that "Hollywood", glasspacks, and otherwise loud, obnoxious mufflers were invented and used to no small degree by our (50ish to 60ish) generation. I'm sure that if you use your W-9 every day, all day, that you may experience some hearing loss in years to come, but on a limited basis, far be it from me to suggest that you deny yourself the peasure of arguably one of the most Gawd-awful, magnificient sounds in tractor history. The W-9 with straight pipe is one awesome sound, and I challenge anyone to dispute that statement.
