dajogejr Posted September 6, 2009 Report Posted September 6, 2009 It is also a GOOD reason to use our 2:1 filter system because we add about 3 or more inches to the length of the intake tract, helping to lengthen the time it takes for this wave to propagate from one end to the other, and to keep the resultant mixture confined so it may be used and not spit back into a filter.... Who are YOU and what is your 2:1 filter? Quote
Sammy Posted September 6, 2009 Report Posted September 6, 2009 I think that's some info copied from Toomey. Quote
dajogejr Posted September 6, 2009 Report Posted September 6, 2009 That's what I was thinking.... Toomey might make a great pipe, but that's about where their knowledge ends. A couple years ago, I had a back and forth with Stuart Toomey about pipes, jetting, setup...etc. He couldn't answer half the questions I had about setup... That "sonic reverberation" or so they call it happens in the exhaust pipe. I don't buy that "sonic wave" being bounced back in the intake tract....someone needs to clue them that's what reeds do...seal for the compression stroke and part way through the exhaust stroke. I guess if I needed to sell air filters as well as pipes...I'd try to come up with something that sounded good as well. I've rode my bike (before it was a drag bike, when it was just a stocker motor with T5 pipes, K&N Pods AND their 2:1 filter), with the crossover tube, with it plugged off, with Pods and with their 2:1 filter. Not a single bit of difference, period. I kept their filter around as a backup, for a long weekend of dusty trail rides with a group of 10 bikes....so I could swap filters after the second day instead of clean the pods. Sorry..I call BS. Now...if they want to talk about the "Sonic Harmony" from the exhaust pipe design and port timing, I'm up for that conversation. That's one of the principles pipe builders build to.... Quote
zephyrdog Posted September 6, 2009 Report Posted September 6, 2009 yea thats off of toomey's web site. I think the boost bottle is a waste of money...time....space...and everything else. toomey makes it sound nice and convincing here lol. Quote
