You'll probably end up with a dip in the midrange (3500-4500) but gain top-end. Isn't that where that little valve thingy is doing the most work?

They put up a dyno chart for the XB9 race kits...when will they get a 12 one up?

I'd also like to see a dyno chart with the race kit installed. I talked to D&D and they are working on a pipe right now. Thats another option. I'll give up a little on bottom end if the top end has a pretty good gain.

Jack-No the catalog that show the dyno chart was not online. Maybe we can get a dealer to photo copy or scan it so that it could posted on BadWeb. I should have a poor quality photo copy of it. If you need it, i will see if i locate it.

Donald,

Thanks a lot, if you happen to grab it, it would be cool to see...Im trying to decide whether or not to spend the cash...Id love the sound, but if the performance decreases from a "ride everyday on the street" perspective, then maybe its the wrong way to go...

Working on it. The fax is not going to be readable when scanned. The image is too small and not readable. Im going to go to the local copy store around here to see if they can scan and clean up the image.

Kit has good results though! increased smooth power delivery on both curves.

That's what I thought!
I'm going to get Gearloose's up here to dyno it. He has the D+D,race ecm and filter. We'll see what it puts out.

Ride to the edge!

My biggest concern is the bottom end and mid.D&D has been a good pipe for that for the tuber's but will have to see how well it works on the XBs.How much doe's Gearloose have into his setup if it was a kit per say????And are you still back ordered or having problems getting the D&D's???
