Re: i luv my fiddy.5
thanks kaycee. so i finally broke down and just took all the rest of the exhaust pipe off. only had bout 2 feet on there be4. anyways ive heard that its bad for the valves cause theres no back pressure? could someone explain this? and how much HP do you think i lost? at low rpm it feels more sluggish but at bout 4.5 grand it seems the same if not better. havent had anyone yell at me yet so it must not be that loud haha. althou my friend moved it 2day and it sounded pretty nice even with the dead cylinder
