Default Jackpot Dyno Tuned Mufflers?

What does “dyno tuned” mean? Aren’t all performance mufflers/head pipes designed using a dyno? My understanding is the left muffler has a smaller baffle than the right. If these were designed and “dyno tuned” using the Fuel Moto head pipe how would they perform using a different head pipe such as Fulsac or V&H Power Duals? I’m just trying to get my head around the “dyno tuned” part of it.

Thanks,
Rick

The guys at Fuel Moto would be happy to explain their muffler design to you. All you have to do is give them a call.

Kinda long but here goes:
Jackpot Dyno tuned mufflers feature our legendary Fuel Moto dyno tuned baffle system. We have spent countless hours testing different baffle designs, configurations and dyno tuning to offer the best performing slip on mufflers available. These mufflers were designed specifically to be used with the stock Harley headpipes, as well as a stage 1 air cleaner and Dynojet Power Commander (or appropriate EFI tuner). Jackpot mufflers offer the ultimate combination of performance and sound. The sound quality of these mufflers is truly second to none. Jackpot Dyno tuned mufflers provide a deep, rich tone that provides a true V-Twin note. They emit a very reasonable sound level in the idle and cruise range areas, and a nice powerful rumble in the upper RPM's.

During the development, customer feedback was crucial as well years of riding, tuning, and selling exhaust systems to real riders who were looking for mufflers that were "not too loud, & not too quiet". We developed a muffler that after a long day of riding you will still say "these mufflers sound awesome" They truly offer a big pipe sound at a lower volume.

The 2/1/2 design of the stock Harley headpipes works very well for performance on the 88", 96", 103" and 110" bikes. The factory headpipe design is based primarily on 2 into 1 design with a crossover for the left muffler. Our extensive testing has shown obvious shortcomings of the aftermarket true dual systems and we have found excellent gains thru baffle design taking advantage of the stock headpipe design. We developed an asymmetrical baffle system that allows us to use the right muffler for the primary muffler and we make use of the crossover and left muffler to produce maximum low end torque and HP. We extensively tested muffler, baffle design, exhaust packing combinations and our final baffle design is the result of 100+ hours of dyno testing and development. Utilizing our unique system these mufflers are the best performing mufflers available, and we back this up with a 100% satisfaction performance guarantee. Jackpot mufflers are manufactured 100% in the USA. Jackpot Dyno tuned mufflers are available in Slash Up, Slash Down and Straight Cut.

All I can say is I went from V&H basic slip-ons to the JackPot straight cuts and I'm a happy camper. Certainly a deeper tone that is not obnoxiously loud. They look like mini cannons

Didn't get into all the technicalities - but read enough on here to try them, and I love mine.

Thanks, I think this answers my question. It sounds as though they may not be the best choice for one of the other aftermarket head pipes.

The Dyno Tuned mufflers work extremely well with the Jackpot 2/1/2 and other similar pipes such as the V&H PowerDuals which use the left hand exit as the primary exhaust path.

Please tell me more about why you like them better than the MO's. I was (am) also considering Monster Rounds or maybe the new 4" Rineharts.

I'm currently running V&H Power Duals with Khromewerks new 3.5" HP Plus touring mufflers on my 05 Eglide. Wanting to go back to 2 pipes and something a little quieter I replaced my FC with this combo but now I'm thinking they're a little too tame for my liking and I could be wrong but I think they're a little too restrictive for this build but maybe I'm feeling the loss of the 2-1.

i'm considering the same mufflers....Jakpots, Monster Rounds..... i have V&H Dresser DUals which are more of a "true dual" then the Jackpot 2-1-2, of the V&H Power DUal...i'm wondering how the DYNO tuner would work with my headers..... Suprised to hear that someone switched from MOnster Ovals...everyone on here goes on about how they are the BEST... i like the look of the Monster ROunds better...just having a hard time swallowing $600+
