Sneaking up on 200hp at the rear wheel.

I have a Muzzy full ti on order and want to ask you guys :what does it sound like? Is it really loud ( 5 blocks AWAY)and how is it at lower rpms and then at 5 grand and up? Does it really shriek? Can you feel any handling improvements? Power any better?
I will have to again ask, how does it drive now? Are you shifting differrent? How many people are turning their heads to look at you? My Katana 750 has a D an D Muffler and it is very loud. Makes heads turn from three blocks or more turn as I come from behind them on light throttle. When I use it it just gets louder and shrieks holy music... anyway, makes a lotta noise.
 
Rick, you and I are at about 500' altitude. You may have missed the part about me removing my counterbalancer. My airbox mod is a little more thorough than most. I'm guessing that once I get my PCII on and 007HARV or 007NICK installed as a baseline, I will be at about 185hp. The nice lady at Web Cam promised me that the 536/577 cams are a drop-in with no machine work required and would get me over 200hp at the rear wheel. It will probably require some careful mapping, but Josh at NW cycle has a fully instrumented Dynojet 200 and is Dynojet factory trained to write maps. Josh says that the highest horsepower numbers that they have seen on his dyno yet is in the mid 160s, but I think that the strongest bike that they have had was a stock Bus with an Yosh pipe and no airbox mod. I may need a new chain to put that number up.

Pilotwhale. One of the bikes that went to Tahoe with us was an F3 with a D&D slip on that had packing in it at some time in the distant past. I got a flat north of Susanville California in the exact middle of nowhere. When the F3 came back for me, he was at full boil. I could hear him coming for 2-1/2 minutes. I can ride beside it, or I can ride a bike length behind it, but I can't stand to ride anywhere in between, even with earplugs. It sounds like a musical instrument, but it is the loudest can I have ever heard.
 
Pilotwhale- It depends on which can you got, which baffle is in it, what it is made out of, and whether you plan on repacking it when the packing goes away. Muzzy round cans are louder than oval, and about a pound lighter. Muzzy makes a quieter baffle that you have to ask special for (I did not). Carbon cans have to have packing in them or they will burn up. Cans with packing are quieter than cans without. I got the round ti can with the loud baffle, and I can hardly wait for the packing to go bad. I will not replace it. It is almost as loud as the can on the F3, and it's only going to get louder. It sounds like the big dog on the block regardless of sound level. It sets off car alarms going 30mph in first gear cruising down city streets. I like it. It has already saved me from a SUV attempting a lane change over the top of me.
 
Just checked with UPS. Looks like my PCII is in town. I should have it tomorrow. I'm doing what Herman Munster did when he was excited. Can any of you high school gradiates explain to me how to get 007HARV out of my computer and into my PCII? Does anybody know what altitude 007HARV and 007NICK are for? I'm at about 500'. Can I use the three buttons to compensate for altitude? I was told to set TPS to top bar for these maps. Anybody want to comment on this? Have any of you actually seen Rick Phillips and his Bus?
 
Pilotwhale. The weight difference is amazing. It turns in like a 600 now. I ran it over the truck scales tonight, and it said 500lbs. Like Martha Stewart says: "It's a good thing.".

I've never seen 185H.P. with your mods,but best of luck to you on your dyno runs I hope it makes more then 185H.P. be sure to post the results.
 
Kirk,I know you want more power(I do to)your probably at 170-175 thats where I think I am with the same mods you have but with akro pipe,that last 25-30 horse power is going to take some major motor work that can turn a nice bike into a monster,that has to run on high octane fuel. I'm going to stay where I'm at for now my next move will be to a turbo.
 
Rick, you don't need high octane unless your spraying nitrous, running a turbo, or your at 15.1 compression or above on the Busa.
 
I installed my new Muzzy full TI with oval Ti can tonight too. Is that pipe a work of art or what?! Simply beautiful! Perfect fit and very large primaries. Headers are one piece with one short midpipe + can.

Very close fit under the oilpan but it's obvious Muzzy really did their homework - it is so close to the pan on each side - yet perfect.

That's it - straightforward and simple. Incredibly lightweight - hard to believe it is so light when looking at it.
 
frank I did the same thing a month ago isnt that a pisser? It LOOKS like its all the way down...
 
Frank,

My mistake, I forgot the "4". Either way still a stout motor. If you had the rubber velocity stacks unseated from the T bodies, you probably did loose 3-5hp. Also becareful they do not fold over into the T bodies when you install the box. I usually spray them with silicone before install. Learned this trick on the old ZX7 ramair boxes(pain).

lanta, we just forgot to tighten it back up after the airbox switching. I just wish I could have caught that at Dennis shop before we quit!

Hangman1300, It's going to take seeing Dyno charts for anyone to believe those kind of numbers.(those aren't hard to produce either)

Is this bike 85mm?(1430)

Since you brought it up, would you care to share what you did with the airbox?
 
Big Mike
Pls. send the dyno charts.

ramair1@flash.net

Did you dyno both bikes on the same day same dyno?
I am expecially interested in the ZX12R chart, I have an Akrapovic/PC2 on order for it now.
Thanks
Bob
 
Wow! Sounds like some of us need to switch to decaf. If I get 175, then 175 it is. It certainly feels like 20hp more than whatever I had before. Either way, it's a lot faster than it was before, and it was a lot faster than everything else before I touched it, so it really doesn't matter. It makes cool noises, it handles way better, and my watch slows down when I open the throttle.
 
Hey- what altitude are these numbers coming from? I'm at about 500'. For what it's worth, the dyno is a Dynojet 200.
