Will i lose HP if i switch to V&H short shots?
Will I lose HP if I switch out stock exhaust for V&H short shots?:icon_eddie:

I don't think you'd lose much if any HP. You lose TQ, not too noticeable, but when installing a set of Big City Thunder original monster baffles you will feel a difference. I know they worked really well for me and sound waaaay better than the stock V&H baffle.

The V&H short shots sound great though. Bob |
Apparently the short answer is yes. But the correct answer is no, although that's shorter than yes too.. While they are far from the best performing, and imo one of the worst sounding, they will still make more power than the stock corks. Combined with a high flow and a good tune you'll still feel a nice gain over stock.

I just put some short shots on and have been reading two things: 1) short shots run best with no baffles (which is my current setup purely based on sound) 2) you HAVE to run baffles in short shots or you lose a lot of power. I was thinking of installing the Big Coty Monster baffles because of what I have read about their performance.
Rock103- do you know how your baffles compare to no baffles? |

Thank you. I am going to go ahead and go that route. Those are 2 1/8" correct?

I always liked the the big shots the best. but with the short shots they perform better with baffles in them. I always thought the short shots where about 2 inches too short.

Sorry, I read in my mind compared to other pipes which the answer is Yes. I had V&H Staggered Short Shots (sound amazing!) but compared to my Bassani Road Rage II the power difference was substantial as was the Torque. Bob |
