I'm sorry but I've tried a few other twin pipe setups (FMF Fatty, Pro Circuit, T5's, and soon Trinity Stage IV's on a quad with Stage III port work and twin Keihin 35mm carbs - kinda excited to see how that one runs) and not one of them would work very well for my style of riding. And even on the smaller hills the twins took ALOT of clutch abuse to go places I went without ever touching the clutch lever on my 2 into 1 piped Banshee. And my Dynoport 2-1 pulls much harder and a touch longer than the stock twins did on the top end.
Sure aftermarket performance twins pull like mad on the top end compared to stock or the 2-1 Dynoport, and some of them even pull great from what I would call mid on up, but not one of the setups I've had experiance with wasn't garbage from 4-5000rpm down to idle. And when you top hills at times just above idle in second gear like I do, that Dynoport 2 into 1 torque is a life AND quad saver!
I need to find a chassis dyno to run my bike on, something just doesn't make sense with how mine works compared to how some of you say yours did.
And in case you think I'm just stubborn - If I ever do come across a set of twins that can make the power down low that I need, I'd buy them in a second because I'd LOVE to have that topend scream - but I simply can't and refuse to give up the super low end torque of the 2 into 1 pipe & twin carb setup for the riding I do.
BTW: The Dynoport takes a leaner jetting than twins most of the time (Hell, Rich even recommends stock Jetting which is TOO lean from my experiance!), so if your twins ran that great without changing jetting, you probably had the Dynoport 2-1 jetted WAY to fat. Also I've found through my other buddy's experiance's the 2 into 1 intakes that the combo of 2-1 pipe AND intake seems to really strangle the potential on the pipe.
