Huh ?????????
I dont understand what your trying to do...getting better sound? more quiet? more power?i think the factory that built the bike,did their best to get sound,quiet and power.with 3 mufflers and those bends,you are increasing the back pressure too much...

i see what you mean
basically what i meant was if i had 3 glasspacks underneath each other first two connected by mandrels 3rd 1 at the bottom being the outlet would it deepen, but seemingly as you said "you are increasing the back pressure too much" that is obvious that would destroy the engine, slowly, so ill just go for one 33" to make the difference ill put pics and vids up as soon as it's done or at least something, any other ways of deepening an exhaust note bar glasspacks?

What's to tell? Try YouTube for some videos maybe.

got some
found some videos and sound clips, sound rather nice, bullet does as well, also instead of it going out the back like every other bike, how about bending around on the side like a side pipe on a v8, or maybe a small stack? i can do more things to the truck but limited on the bike. something different than the rest ya dig?
but loving the dynomax, and the thrush, although going onto dynomax website thrush emblem was there so i assume partnership? but i do like. |

My son's team built a collegiate Formula SAE car using a 600 cc 4 cylinder motorcycle engine, and they had to fit the exhaust into a relatively tight package. The pipe came off the header pointed to the rear. The pipe ran to a point just behind the engine and had a mandrel 180 degree bend before attaching the muffler. The muffler was a straight-thru glasspack that was parallel to the engine (on the side), pointing forward. On the end of the glasspack there was a short 90 degree bend pointing out to the side of the car.
They tuned it on a dyno before installing it, and it ran very well in competition. However, I believe the potential horsepower was limited by the rule on the max size of the throttle body intake, so the flow of the exhaust was probably not a limiting factor. During competition they switched to a slightly longer glasspack because they did not pass the decibel noise test during the first inspection. The college Formula SAE teams do extensive custom tuning to stay within the rules and still get max power from a small engine, and most of them use Megasquirt or other highly tunable CPUs. If you are going to make big changes in your bike exhaust, you may have to do similar tuning to compensate for the flow changes. Bruce |

thanks
i do have friedns with dyno's and have other parts to help compensate from the muffler mod. ill take the whole test thing on board as they say, and will do that before i use it full. thankyou
