so just for fun i put my old prima pipe back on and took off the v8
and the rat def lost power in the upper rpm{above 6500]
but the low end was much better
so im gonna go back to the v8
are there any others i should try that are better?
has anyone tried different?

I made a supplemental silencer from a small engine muffler that fits on the end of the stinger to boost low-end & midrange with the V8. Didn't lose anything up top, either.

ive tried restricting it a little but still no low end power-great pipe above 6500 though
i was just trying to find a way to get more power outta this rat
i cant seem to get a bbk anywhere for it
so i guess my wifes hairdryer is gonna make a sweet ass turbo!

Do you have any objectionable way to measure power or are you just going by feel?

A bit curious since anecdotally I have found myself very easily fooled by sound when going by feel, meaner sound for a bike always seems to have more power even when it doesn't (especially in the upper RPM).

no real way to measure the power im going by feel,top speed,ability to wheelie and acceleration over a measured distance
not rocket science but it works ok for now
