Steve, thanks for all the info.  What's the turn around time for the un-corking of the head pipe.  Thanks, Gabe

Turn around time? About 2 days.

[Fullsac Performance]

thanks for your work and you really help us out here ,

thanks steve

Thank you, its all fun for me. I love finding hidden HP trapped in the stock parts.

What do you do after rewelding it too keep it from getting ugly and rusted?  I know the chrome gets blue/gold ugly but it doesn't get rust.
Thanks

The first dyno test of removing the cat that I did was on a 09-96" that showed all but zero hp gain. At 75 hp the cat isn't holding any power back. On the CVO 110, whole different story. At 95hp, the cat and stock muffler are killing off about 10hp. Not to mention building heat and hurting fuel economy.

Hmmmm... Sounds like a Market for High-Flow Cats...down the road, you know before it's over it will come to that...Greg

The heat shield covers the weld. If a person wanted they could spray it with hi temp. in The az climate that stuff doesn't rust.

Get them raw and have them ceramic coated!

Hey Steve do you have your own dyno?

No, I pay an old def bald guy to do my testing and put my companies name on the charts. lol........
Never ever let him ride your bike!

Have you ever had pipes ceramic coated?  Whats the price of ceramic coating a head pipe?
Thanks

Not much, I haven't had it done yet, but I looked at prices, and that just said motorcycle exhaust, so it might be less.I think around $150. I'll look for the info I had.

Update
Here's a coupe of sites, one has prices.

Well here's some crap, just wanted to talk to someone before I go up with my friend and talk to these guys. He added pipes and an AC, took it down to a local shop and had it dyno'd. I haven't seen the chart yet, but they say they got him 9 hp over the canned map he was running. I asked him to tell me the the correction factor on the bottom of the pages, the original one was 1.19, the finished one was 1.20, not a big change and I don't know how much that would change things, but they should have been the same. You have any idea how much that would have changed the results?

Steve,

How much difference would there be between having the stock pipe cored out and going with a 2 into 1 instead...assuming 2.25" Fullsac mufflers with the cored out stock pipes?

[BMF-110]

Thanks for the indepedent testing, excellent results!!  Curious on the sound of the finished product, how would you rate??

The correction factor is determined by the weather station built in to the dyno. 1.20 sounds about right for high elevations common in Colorado. It means 20% was added to the actual power output to correct it back to see level. .95 would mean the dyno software removed 5 hp from a 100 hp run. My dyno sits at 1100' elevation. The runs I did last week were seeing a correction of 1.02-1.03. Its not something a dyno operator has control over or should attempt to manipulate. The most acurate testing is always done back to back in very simular conditions so the correction factor is very close. 1.19 and 1.20 are very close. The most important thing on any dyno chart is the torque line. Its the only thing related to actual riding. Comparing runs that were done weeks or months apart is ballpark at best regardless of the correction factor.

You had to ask. My leg roasting not available yet 2 into 1 made a nice jump in bottom end torque over everything else tested. Heat shields are the current obstacle. Not something the RG guys will ever want with the bag cutouts. I'm going to come back to it after I get this new headpipe conquered and on the shelf. Currently I have one bolted on my 96" 09. Its cool enough in the winter time that the girls don't complain about their leg catching on fire.
