Cant help with the pipe question because of insufficient collateral info, apart to say its miles too short.
What is the ignition curve.
What is the egt in the header.
Does the Blowdown STA match with the Transfer STA for peak power at 14660.
The pipe is well out of sync with the port, as is shown by the huge torque hole at 12,000, so something is seriously wrong.
Post a pic of the pipe design, as who knows what the the length % are after the usual cut and try on the dyno scenario, where the tuned length
that you found to "work " was only "right " as it was fighting elements of the design that were not remotely right for the peak rpm.
Edit - and 18 Hp at 14660 is only 11Bar BMEP so its hardly "good " for an engine reving that high - again pointing to something being very wrong.
Re Cryo treatment
Works very well for Jap gearboxes where for production purposes they do the absolute minimum heat treat required for the hardness needed.
As it helps to complete the martensite conversion process.
Also helped the old Rotax 256 twin that liked to spit out the small diameter 3rd gearwheel that was way over-stressed for the application.
And done it for years in aircooled KT100 racing, where it helps to stabilize the bore shape when they get very hot - especially when we used clutch pipes and
were up against that engines thermal limit the whole time.
But in my opinion micropolishing and the microblue process would achieve more if you are confident in the gear strength and heat treatment.
Ive got a thing thats unique and new.To prove it I'll have the last laugh on you.Cause instead of one head I got two.And you know two heads are better than one.
