| does anybody think that a 2inch system with extractors and only one hotdog in front of the rear axle where the old muffler box used to be would sound good? |

Yeah been there it's quickest way to get a unroadworthy, and you have to have the stereo up fnk loud to here it,
1600 big cam, weber tx headers 2inch pipe 1 hotdog
I could be heard from about 8kms from home on full song going up the hills.
the old man was most impressed it came to the point that I had to change it or I could not start my car, just at idle in the drive it used to shake the house windows, he threatened to use the gas axe on it.
but after 3 months I was just as sick of it, so I went
for tx headers 2 1/4 pipe with a 2 1/2 inch turbo muffler and a 2 1/2 resi, and straight out the back, best combo ever on a warm 1600.
cheers

| Agree. wish someone would beat it into those fuckwit HArley riders that take the baffles out of their mufflers so everyone can hear them coming. Wankers! |

Here here! And the typical Harley - more noise than go - motto. "Hey as long as we sound tough... Grrr"
My current setup:
Genie extractors with 2 1/4" pipe, large Redback muffler, resonator on rear and 3" exit (arse of resonator cut for big exit). All that on a warm 1600.
I doubt Eggy would have heard it over his thing though on the cruise to Warburton though.
Cheers  |
