He got pissed at all the haters/naysayers and took his ball and went home. Really a shame, since most people who ran their mouth had no idea who he was.

Educate me here, whats all the hype about a TNT chamber? If they are that much better than a B chamber, then how come they arn't made anymore? Looks like a kawi limited to me

I spent 6 months trying to figure out how to make a TNT work well and gave up! I am proud of those that can make them work because I am not smart enough to get any power out of them.

The problem I see with TnT pipes is that there are a few versions AND a number of test (not good enough to go into production) chambers out there. Tuning info is hard to come by, and it's hard to know which chamber you have or what it was built for. They were race pipes, so like some top end oriented dry pipes, they don't work well for freestyle on every motor.

IMO it is one of those pipes that you build/set up a motor around the pipe and not the other way around. I have heard great things about them from some pretty smart people, my problem was I was not smart enough to get it to work on my Lamey. lol My engine builder knows the B mod chamber inside and out and likes to tune for one so that is what I will stick with until he says otherwise. lol

That is too bad. They shoould have told him how to make it better, then not make it at all.
It would be nice to have more pipe options.

I have ridden a limited 701 superjet with a TNT chamber (many times), while it made great power, I don't feel it was any more power than a limited SJ chamber (at least none I could notice). It also was more likely to break lord mounts and blow couplers. I liked my carbon SJ chamber more, but I don't know anything about anything. They do look neat all polished up though.
