  • I will show you how to drill your exhaust, tap it for threads so if you ever want it back stock, you can insert 2 plugs! Sounds amazing!

    Was that the theme song for "Trailer Park Boys" playing in the background? Ricky, is that you?

    Which if the following is true?
    1. The relief of back pressure on a 2 stroke was a topic of lengthy discussion in the 2 stroke bible. If i recall, this moves the power band of the engine towards the higher rpms at the expense of lower rpm power.
    2. Resting ducks love to hear exhaust holes at 7k rpms.

    you need to get a drill bit that fits the drill so it dont wobble around like that... but this is a good place to drill for exhaust vents..

      Check the max rpm to see if you can change the prop for a higher pitch

  • @Pleipoy
    @Pleipoy Před rokem +12

    there are 2 obvious benefits. Get rid of the back pressure in the rig and on the same time get rid of exess speed. As a side bonus others on the water will get angry. If theese same guys own 2 wheelers the same can be applied, ie. drill your exhaust pipe before the expansion. Good trick wont get your bike anywhere. There are guys who post tuning tricks here and those who don't, hard to tell who is faster 😁

      no more top end speed from this. just a bit better pull away if buried deep.... most people just like the sound..... me personally i like it.. but performance wise its only for the initial pull away, also good if you run over hub props

      when on plane properly you already get the exhaust noise from the prop ( or should do if on plane and set up right ).... snouts are the loudest especially if running dry stacked with the lower blocked off.
