Freestyle Power Factor Pipe Myth

[zeski25]

Rumor has it the Power Factor Pipe does not make a difference on motors under 900cc's. I just installed this exhaust on my Dasa 846SS and Im here to tell you the rumors are FALSE. Holy poop this thing rips not even being tuned. The bottom is the same but the mid to top is crazy. I have stock electronics and a stock pump and the difference was huge. Anyone in the market of this pipe I would highly recommend giving Mark Baxter at Power Factor a call. The pipes are now in stock and they have been extremely helpful during the installation process "my first time installing this system".

ive always wondered this. i want one of these pipe and will probably end up with one. main reason being factory pipes service SUCKS i called yesterday some lady answered the phone and said were basically closed. really? why would you answer the phone i asked her if they had an eta on an limited pipe she said im not in sales and i do not make them so i couldnt tell you. hmm ok she said call back in a week and merry christmas and hung up.

Good to know, thanks for the review.
Ima probably grab one to try out next year.

Nice. Mine is on the way and going on a 828.
What did you use for water lines?
Did you remove the battery box or does the power box sit in it?

 

[zeski25]

Riva supplied the water lines. I modified the battery box to fit the power box. There's no doubt fp customer service is horrible. Matt e I highly recommend this pipe, no regrets switching to it!

 

[ridetrp]

how many does he have in stock do you know?

If you want to bump up the bottom end, take out the water box. I hated it on my 865, we took it out, and the bottom end hits harder than a 1000 that we have

 

[waterfreak]

that's a hot set up right there!

 

[sicksxr07]

Mines on its ways!!! )) hooking it up to a kawi Dasa 970 built by Jetworks .. Should be a far cry from a bb850

All thanks to Brian at thrust innovations !!!!

Has anyone tried to tune one on a Ported 701 yet?

 

[harris414]

been looking at this pipe for my new motor, looks like i just might have to do it.

Did Art @ Jetworks recommend switching to the powerfactor? Or are you making the switch on your own?

please.
could put a picture of the new location of the battery.
is the biggest problem I see in these releases because of the water box.

thanks

you guys are fags. i've been preaching dry pipes for a year now. i am about to test a bigger chamber on a jetmaniac/blue 760 motor.

Yah, but nobody believes you. :clown:

so do you suggest using the water box kit and not using the box, or use the

and then the ski becomes 3x louder, and then you run a much higher risk of water feeding back into the engine

 

[Matt_E]

But the bottom end!

Powerfactor pipes without waterboxes suck. They are so loud and give our sport a bad reputation.

Everyone besides dk says that the waterbox helps with low end power and exhaust noise is reduced to that of a ported 701 with new xmetal box.

Maurice, you can re locate the battery in the left rear corner of the hull. You just gotta make a new battey box holder
