What the hell?

[bogan]

Not true sorry. It works pretty well on any exhaust system.

Does it move the peak torque slightly higher in the rev range if you use the same pipes though?

Also, does 'any' exhaust system include ones with overly restricted mufflers?

Reason I'm curious is I have only wrapped my midpipe atm, and haven't decided whether to wrap or rebuild my corroded headers.

You lot know nothing, the exhaust is made from garlic bread.

Retreads.

You can actually move the torque curve up or down the rev range by how far you wrap the headers. Headers being the key word mate. It works ok on collectors etc...but best results according to our very expensive dyno show headers are where it's at for wrap.

The muffler question is a goodin though, and to be honest, I don't know the answer. Nothing we have tested on the dyno has had overly restricted mufflers. But I do think it'd still work better than no wrap at all.

yeh i guess the header pulses are the biggest thus best for scavenging. In your experience, would a 650 twin require re-jetting after a header wrap?

Get a room you two. This thread is all about Sable calling people retards in an attempt to make himself feel less retarded.

[Sable]

Hey, Crasher's the one calling people retards, not me. Get your facts in order

Jet it correctly first.Don't think the wrap will have any effect on jetting.

[White trash]

Looks to me like he's done a shitload more work than pipe wrap, a crappy mismatched tracker seat, shitty paint, open exhaust and ditched the airbox for a pod.

Show us your custom bike so we can pass judgement?

Fuckwit.

[Sable]

Oh, I missed a couple of things. Rearsets and he's chopped the front fender. Woohoo. It's still a high mileage commuter bike with mismatched seat and garish paint for 5 grand. Are you two his mates or something?

Edit: Chopper style number plate mount painted springs on stock shocks and he's dropped the forks. Just covering my ass in case you think any of these details changes the sum of the whole, which is apparently a bike you like the look of and think is an improvement over original, both aesthetically and functionally and think is worth more than 1500 plus the price of some black rattlecans.

It might be the point they were trying to make, is that modified bikes are often not to everyones tastes, but as long as the owner is happy, who gives a shit right?

Yeh it's jetted good as, will probly go with stainless if i can find a tig to borrow, better looks. What sort of hp gains were you getting for wrapped stuff?

[Sable]

I can guess. Fuck all

[scumdog]

To clarify, no effect on heat retention thus keeping it away from external components AS WELL AS 'massive scavenging improvements', which has not been the aim 90% of the time I have seen it applied. Make sense now? Retard right back at ya cuz.

Most chuck that wrap on for 'the look', to them it 'looks cool' -functionality is the last thing on their mind...

To me the look is crap, straight away I wonder how many crappy welds and joints it's covering.

[riffer]

Looks more powdercoated than a rattle gun job to me checking out the youtube video.

Looks quite tasty to me. Sorry Sable.

[Sable]

Sweet, an opinion instead of abuse. 1500 and rattlecans refers to fixing the colours. Does anyone think it's an improvement over stock though?

There's a first time for everything..... first time I agreed with Scumdog hahaha
