Heres the deal. I have a speedmaster with thunderbike pipes. I hate the volume and would like a volume level around 1/2 way between stock pipes and thunderbikes. i was thinking of getting some america pipes and de-baffling them to some degree. The question is 2 fold......will removing 2 of the baffles get me a volume level as i described, and how far back will i have to go with my airbox and jetting? (no snorkel, UNI, drilled, 130,TBS, stock pilots)
i have read that the first 2 baffles get you a nice sound but that knocking out the 3rd is when they get very loud. I'm also wondering wow much performance i'd lose and how far back to stock i'd have to set my jetting and airbox.
By the way, if i did this i'd want to use america pipes because i don't want to cut the end off the stock speedy pipes....i want them as backups for when i sell it or have to have it tested, and i prefer slash cuts. Thats why i'd get a set of americas, just for the record. i'm just thinking about it, not sure i can live with the performance loss.
