All three of my 5105's have had their mufflers changed out. I didn't really notice a big change in performance, but there was a HUGE change in heat..ALOT LESS!!  Also the 5100 mufflers are lighter in weight.  It's a very easy swap.

MY 5 of 5100's are all gutted and MM'd they run a lot cooler louder too.  Highly recommend swapping out the Cat muffler.  Cheap insurance.  Don't forget to retune after the swap.

This was my observation of my one 5105
