If your straight pipe is attached to the exhaust crossover pipe, you're still forcing both exhaust streams into a single constricted outlet. See Message #43710 (note that our odd firing sequence pretty much negates the traditional theories). I'm running true dual exhaust, 2" diameter, no catalytic converters. Hard to compare directly to a DeLo B28 because I'm also running different fuel metering (carburetion), but performance shows no sign of needing improvement. Biggest faults with stock DeLo exhaust: - Extreme heat - Accessibility (front of the engine as well as the back) - Restricted flow Bill Robertson #5939 >--- In dmcnews@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx, "Dani B" <5n-@xxxx> wrote: > I am wondering if there is any back pressure specifications the PRV-6 > requires?
