Yep, Scuzz was right. I had a dream to change my exhaust to a full system, so i am sitting here with the exhaust porrt open and no pipe on it.
UPS is on thier way bringing the Powerbomb header and FMF 4.1 titanium exhaust. WOOHOO

Bah...you don't need no exhaust. Leave it off....it will just increase flow and give you even more power! :D

I have never seen an exhaust without ANY clamps on it. Red high temp silicone for each connection

Yeah, its gonna get the side of my boot hot. I may ceramic coat it or wrap part of it to keep the burns down. Does it get louder once its run a while?

I figured with the larger diameter headpipe and straight thru can design that it would be louder. We will see tomorrow when i head to the park

I'll post pictures after I'm done putting the bodywork on and it's daylight.

After letting it idle for a while and doing a few throttle chops I'm now officially "that guy" in the complex.

The juice box went on stupid simple too.

Dave,

Everything was e-x-a-c-t-l-y as you described it and pictured it. I am very, very pleased.

WooooHooooooo!:tup::tup::tup:

Thanks again,

I will this evening, I'm pestering Two Brothers for some stickers now. We'll see if they pull through.


*late edit*

I doubt they will give them to me when they sell them on the site for nearly $8.

there is absolutely no question about the powerbomb exhaust ... no sneaking up on shit in the woods ...cause you can hear anyone within 2 miles with this thing.

Yeah I got the same response from the MX guys in the woods and on the track when I passed them in the straights. (for that 1-2 laps my candyass was on the track)

Dave, I don't see the 4.1 Titanium exhaust listed for the 700xx in the FMF website. Is there a part number, or will any of the 4.1 Tit fit on the Powerbomb header?
