I like them and their loudness...Will they make more power when I'm running at 5-7k on a long straight?
Thanks, KT |

I have found my engine pulls very noticably 'easier' up to redline with the megaphones compared to a Dansk 2-in/2-out. I'm mainly talking about 5500-7000rpm's. My engine feels constipated in comparison with the muffler installed. The midrange impact due to no backpressure should not normally be an issue with track driving as long as you stay in the powerband. If you let it drop under 4K or so (depending on cams etc), you may get some bog.
So far I like the "slightly muffled" megaphones I got from Ben McFarland; they're stainless too, but approx 3X as expensive as regular cookie cutters from George Narbel. |
