Default Repacking Muffler ?

This is a question more out of curiosity rather than need, but when do you know it's time to repack a muffler? Will it sound different or shoot black smoke or something?

It will sound different or shoot black smoke IF you try to repack it!


EDIT: Didn't know you were talking about TB

Well...I believe Two Brothers recommends repacking after 3000 miles. However, I close to 4000 miles on mine and there has been no change in sound or performance. No smoke either.
