ban421shee Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Around 4-5 passes, it was pretty close to what I had it with the shearers, im still tweaking things here and there, I know it has more, just mostly clutch and chassi. I thought you may still be tuning since you said you stuck a ring. Quote
ban421shee Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 I found some video of Brad Painter's 465 Cub engine being dyno'd on gas with three different Sniper pipe designs, all with different peaking rpms. And a dyno sheet. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g215/passionre/PassionDyno-072011.jpg Quote
SandmanPNW Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 What is the wait time on a fresh set of these mofos?I would get them show chromed so it would just be a raw set. Quote
ban421shee Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Sniper and Passion are building pipes and engines for dirt bikes, check out these videos of a KX85 putting the hole shot on a hole mess of 150 four strokes. Talk about acceleration and explosive power. Quote

SandmanPNW Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 That's awesome. My nephew races mx and is on a KX85 too. I wonder what these pipes run. I was going to order on the website but couldn't find any info other than the vids. Quote
PassionRE Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Gary and I work together to offer engine/pipe packages for any 2 cycle format. They are all custom matched for each particular engine and /or racing enviroment. On engines that I am not building, we require an accurate port map of the engine format in order to match pipe resonance and efficiency rpm when possible. If not possible, upon crashing data on the port maps, I will offer port correction services where needed for balanced resonance and transfer/ex. port eff. rpm matching. The KX-85 vid is fitted with a custom Sniper down pipe, typically a short track style fit, not sure how well that would work in MX. It was matched to my port work to make peak HP at 13800 RPM. We dont have access for every frame configuration that we design for, so we offer multi- piece partially fabbed kits for the customer to do final orientation for proper fit to their application. We assemble the pipe as much as possible, leaving a few seams open for customers to fine adjust desired upswing, clearance, etc. If interested in this type of service for ANY 2 cycle engine just email me at [email protected] ....Jim Quote
PassionRE Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Don't you think its fair to state the same comment about shearer pipes? Some people on this forum like to also skip over shearer pipes undeniable success at the track. This whole situation just needs to get hammered out at the track for sure. Well , you better bring your hammer if you think you need it. Quote
SonOfSand Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Well , you better bring your hammer if you think you need it. Ohhh SHIT!... You got SERVED skywalker! Those sniperes are SEXY! Quote
locogato11283 Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 Hahaha. I fucking love the NASA wrap on the Shearer bike. Looks so clean. Quote
ban421shee Posted July 21, 2012 Report Posted July 21, 2012 I think we should keep it technical and state the facts when one out performs the other, at the track or on a dyno, even butt dyno comparisons can tell a lot. I feel we should be thankful to have more than one good product to chose from. I can guaranty there will be posts where Shearer out performs Sniper, same thing with Sniper out performing Shearer. When it comes to quality, Sniper may force Shearer to raise the bar, and I am sure he will! Quote
#1JUANstunna Posted July 22, 2012 Report Posted July 22, 2012 ^ That's down right funny ^ I think Jim is gettin' fired up! Quote
