Default Just How Much Does 2into1

Iv been told i need a good 2 into 1 exhaust to get good lower end on my build. Is it true you get gains out of a 2 into 1 and how much ? I have reinharts now. Im strong after 3000 but Im around 80tq from 1500 to 3000. Would really like to pick that up.

Yes, a 2-1 will give you much better performance on the low end when compared to the 2-2 systems.

If you want the best all around performance, you can't beat a 2-1 system.

Noticeable difference throughout the band, especially at lower rpm's. Only mods I made were the Mikunicarb, filter & 2-1.

A quick fix to getting back a lot of that lost torque is going with the 'torque cones' that install inside your head pipes. When I went from stock to true duals it was like someone was holding onto the back of the bike every time I tried to accelerate...even worse when the wife was riding with me. I put in a set of torque cones and the power came back all the way through the power band.

I had a true dual system on my Heritage Springer...95" build, heads, cams, do dads PCIII...The most that Cycle Solutions could get out of it was 76HP an 91Tq

Rinehart 2in1 and retuned 95 HP and 99TQ

Swapped out my V&H BSS and went to D&D Fatcat < Wow!> Sounds great and runs way better. Would have been great if I had got them from the start.

Cheers,

D&D Fatcat 2/1 pipes have the noteriety of hitting like a hammer on the bottom.
