Hi, just wondering if anyone has any opinion or info on this... I am currently building a race bike and due to limited budget I am going to be using the stock exhaust system. Firing order is 1-2-4-3 and the downpipes are linked 1 to 4, and 2 to 3. The collector is a 4-2-1. The cam profiles (stock) are quite short and so I am going to tune the bike for maximum power in quite a narrow rev range.
My question is this - can I gain any power by removing the link pipes?? Are the link pipes there to help power throughout the whole range?? If this is the case then surely removing the link pipes will help the top end...
Ideally speaking I would like to make power over a wider range but unfortunately I can't invest much more money into the bike and my only option is to modify what's there to suit.
Thanks in advance,
D.
