That's good! how's the performance??

And Did you do something with your Crank ? machine aligment ? top RPM range?

I saw it, but I decided to go with titanium, why? because endurable, but Still I'm very interesting about this brand connecting rods..can you share some good performance?

how does the micron terminate, ie. 4-2-1, 4-1? I'm looking for a good flowing header for drag racing.

Hung- you're going to custom make these headers? What materials are you going to be using and what are you going to sell them for?
In the mean time, can you custom make a 4-2-1 collector with a HTEV flange that'll bolt directly to the factory header? If so, what kinda cost would I be looking at for that?

Most pipes are designed on the theory of a garden hose which is incorrect as the pipe does not ever stay completely "filled" Its filled and exhausted in pulses which create different dynamics in the pipe.

They figured that out and quite well IMO.
Interesting Thanks for the info.

4/2/1 on the sets I've had.

If your dragging I'd think you'd want 4/1 short runs, even sidewinders perhaps.

Problem is no company makes a sidewinder for a 929. The companies that make them feel it's not worth their time to make a sidewinder for a bike smaller than 1000cc's.
I've seen a pic of a 954 with a sidewinder exhaust but it was custom made and had a 1000 motor swap
