Factory pipe, B vs. dry?

[Big Kahuna]

that protec is suppose to make some really good power> I would be surprised if you did not notice any difference.

The protec is alot of weight on the cylinders and head though.

That is one of the reasons for me switching pipes. I Don't like how it bolts to my head. It does make awsome power though.

I gotta say I disagree:

1. ever since switching to heavier coupler not an issue

2. if you strip the thread I would worry about your mechanical skills or more importantly proper use of mechanics best friend - Torque wrench if you cannot do it by hand

3. stock hood never an issue, maybe on am hoods

4. yes hence more power or retard timing or step compression down.

ALSO you have to mention setting up a b-pipe, ie. the water screws. This was the main reason that I went with dry - less setup and testing

What heavier cupeling did you use? I can’t not find one that does not split opened. My ski has been down for a week not and I keep fixing it but they just keep ripping.

I can can't tell you what that guy meant but the best coupler in my experience is marine wet exhaust hose. I buy it by the foot online and cut to coupler length. It's very thick and tough.
