Viper Race Can
 
Is there a significant power gain to be had by fitting one of these babies to my 02 curvey?

I fitted mine this evening and my neighbours hate me already!, but I didn't get a chance to test it properly. I took the bike round the block and she felt more eager than normal, but I couldn't tell if there was any more power.

Should there be?

cheers

Nope, you need a full system to get power gains.

altho there might not be much increase if any the sv feels to ride better with a freeflow can on, it rev's cleaner and doesnt feel like theirs a ragg stuffed in ya end can.

It's peeing down right now, so I'm not gonna go out, but I can't wait to take her for a proper spin up the bypass or something to see what it's like on the open road. The racket last night was something else! My neighbour commented to my wife at lunchtime something about "Did paul take his exhaust off last night?" My neighbour thought I was running it with no can on!

Yeah they're lowd, so lowd that I have to free-wheel out of my street!! and that I had to put baffle back in for a long trip down south and for the MOT, just sounded more or less the same, so much so the MOTer didn't believe me that the baffle was in never mind being road legal till I showed him the e-mark and even then!!!!!lol
You will always get looks where ever you go which is good and bad, but I dont care either way as it sounds f'ken amazing, just the way i'm sure the guy that designed it intended!!!
Enjoy matey
