Not sure I'd like it so much on the Thunderbird, in terms of sound or interaction with the EFI.

As far as the tunable silencers are concerned, it won't make any difference in performance. Your only going to see between 4 - 6 hp gain from any of the TB exhausts offered. With a performance filter 6 - 8 tops. Don't know about the BC filter yet. They're claiming around 12 hp gain with the PC.

I think they are actually claiming 12HP with that AND pipes/filter. So subtract whatever the pipes/filter and tune if u use a custom tune got you. I think with my setup, pipes, gutted cat, filter seal removed and mark's tune, i probably wouldn't gain near enough to make it worthwhile.

| Posted : 01 Oct 2013 - 22:38 Post title : Re: SuperTrapp Exhaust (Re: ThunderTusk96) | | firstly I don't like the way they look. I could only find a vid where they were fitted on a harley and on idle I thought wow that sounds fantastic. as soon as the throttle opened up my immediate thoughts were it sounded like a loose fart.. thats a real shame because nine out of ten after market exhausts sounds like a loose fart on dec... I hope when my custom prototype is finished it won't sound like that... this will FREAK me out... just gotta wait and see I guess.

| Posted : 04 Oct 2013 - 08:03 Post title : Re: SuperTrapp Exhaust (Re: Dougl) | | I seriously considered supertrapps for my build. I think they are a great option and for the right build would be perfect. I think you'd have to go the sport/performance cruiser look for them to work though as most any other look they would be out of place on a cruiser.
