Can anyone tell me how much difference there is between Lomas, Nikkon (New) and Swarbrick? There used to be a full dyno test kicking around the internet but I cant find it any more. Is there much in it?
I know Kenny's are the Daddys but as I have a set of Swarbs hanging up I may need to use these for a while.
Cheers,
Mike

what would be nice if someone who has tried them put up a flowchart or table where you could pick what you wanted from the bike based on whether you wanted torque or bhp, high or low revving etc. Eg, I ride road and have to mess with traffic a lot, so I cant have a GP type pipe, but someone else may be racing and need all the power at the top end. Anyone got something like that?

Jon there used to be something like that, that's exactly what I mean. I know roughly what each pipe does just intrested in the broader spectrum of how each perform.

If you can get 10hp off an otherwise standard YPVS from Kenny's pipes, how much different could the other makers pipes be?
Is the guts of it that they all give similar gains, just at different points in the rev range, I imagine peak for each maker is somewhere between 5k & 8k.
Excluding custom pipes for custom bikes.

Yup that sounds about right, some do give more torque though at the expense of bhp from what I can gather. Also some are a pig to to get the carbs right for.

Sounds good to share it. I can also host it on my website if you like Mutts.

Put it on your site too Jon, perhaps a link on 2strokesdownunder ?
The more places the safer methinks.

don't worry guys, everything I have ever done is backed up in several places, I have files dating back to the early 90's !, that's the problem with working in the computer industry for 25+yrs, you get to know how important backups are !!
glad I am out of it now though, although I do miss the money if I am honest !
