Ran My Tri On Dyno Today !

EvoL said:

I do. But they came with my bike. Would I shell out the money for them brand new? Probably not. I don't care about the few extra HP they provide over the slips.

But to say they are worse than stock, well thats a little bias I think.

fact is a full system is totally not worth it. i looked into it heavily and if it were worth it i would have bought it. its a marketing ploy to make you think you need it. most after market full systems are to reduce weight maybe remove the cat. thats it. why buy another SS pipe when you already have one?

the pipe is 20mm larger this drops performance because the gases expand in side the pipe instead of having it pulled through at a faster pace. i forgot what its called but its like what undertow is. all the water pulling into a smaller opening creates a force. i would have got it if it were same as stock titanium.

4k for 5 hp give me a break and a loss in mid range to gain some on top end which you will never use. On a 25k bike thats 20% the cost of a bike or a used say cbr1000rr for the track.

I guess sarcasm and cynicism eludes the best of us. If I were the thought police I ought to lock you up for endangering yourself by thinking .


I planned to drop it before you came in here ready to drop 'bows. We can go back and forth all day if that's what you want, duking it out on the Internet is pretty productive.

You're right, never use it at the track. Why spend the extra money for trips to starbucks or to stare at it in a garage.

Why not?

If you have the desire and the means, then it's better than talking about it

I'm pretty sure the "pissing" contest is over. I was fooling with Gunny, the sarcasm got lost in the bits and bytes.

It really depends on what you are planning to do with the Full system. When I first installed my Full System, it gave me 185.90 HP and increase of about 10 HP from stock. Not only did it gave me more HP at the top but it increased power slightly in the low, mid and high just with the Ducati latest Up map. The 20mm larger diameter does not drop performance as one of Termi's competitor states, but it causes the mid to stay somewhat flat but does not drop. You need the extra 20mm when tuning the engine such as cam's, air intake, higher compression pistons. This engine can really pull some serious air into the engine. The cam timing alone will increase your bikes HP performance significantly more than the exhaust system would ever give. Ive done mine already and the HP increase is crazy stupid and Im waiting on custom built high compression pistons and unfortunately I needed to spend the $3K on the exhaust system that can handle it. The Ti material headers does not give more power it just gives you weight savings but the cost would be tremendous. The HP to cost ratio on a Ti exhaust system to me would insane because the exhaust systems mod gives you the least amount of HP increase but it the most expensive.

oh scrapperx i was saying if the pipe was ti not stainless i would have done it if it were from termi because i dont want to deal with all the tuning from akra. anyway i have slips more than enough. if i ever need an extra 10 hp to beat someone on the track because my skill was so damn hi and i couldnt extract one more 1000th of a second out of the pani because i was perfect on every lap then i will drop the 4k. before that slips will be fine.

Sorry about that gents!
I went ahead and posted the thread while simultaneously scanning the Dyno printout. Had serious issues with Bluetooth connectivity from my printer to iMac, and got fed up due to late hour. Got it to connect this am and the damn PDF file size was too large. This is best I could do with it.

First run- 174.67 hp
Second run - 179.98 hp eek
Third run - 177.98 hp

Wish I had this done before the MWR filter was installed by three people a few months ago. That and slips are only mods. Without getting into a debate over air temp, humidity, how tech did this, or any other BS I am pretty damn happy with these numbers and will take it anyday! FlobrandX was present with me to verify the process if questioned.

Thanks for posting.....Unfortunately I am disappointed in the HP numbers on a 30K bike with claimed 205HP. The first time I put my 2011 ZX-10r on the Dyno.....it came in at 185HP for half the price......I did reprogram the ECU to remove the EPA restrictions but that was it. My dyno was done by Attack Performance who raced MotoGP today.
