powerbomb header

[94warpig]

Worth it? Any real perf gain?

Its a nice pipe, but its really only worth it if you have a ported head, get one of sparky's pipes its more bang for your buck

I have a line on one for 50.00. Didn't know if I should jump on it or not

 

[duneracerweston]

Yea if you can get it for 50 go for it! Its a nice little add it makes the power smoother on mine

 

[94warpig]

Cool thanks! I might go ahead and get it once I find myself a slip on

they are a good for bottom end power. the header is longer than stock which helps. Would really be benefical with an aftermarket cam installed.

It flows a little better but the main thing is they make te quad a little quieter. Its just a can slid over the header and small holes drilled on the inside

 

[94warpig]

Quiet!!!! I don't want no stinkin quiet!!! LOL

I had an FMF powerbomb on my 366. It coupled to a powercore 4, and the proper jetting made a huge difference in the bottom end of my motor.

Dude I have no idea were you got your info from but its dead wrong, its a open swelled inside no "muffler" or "tube with holes in it" its a open area, I know because I have one.

 

[duneracerweston]

And it will not make it quieter... it will be a lower tone, but not quieter

me too ill cut mine open to show you

 

[beastlywarrior228]

this is the megabomb but it's the same concept

 

[beastlywarrior228]

Additionally, the PowerBomb is a “pre-muffler” of sorts which helps to lower the bikes sound output by providing more sound absorbing surface area for the sound medium (exhaust gases).

 

[duneracerweston]

Dude the mega bomb is totally different pipe, im talking powerbmb on a warrior, its open.

I think Beastly is right Weston check it out

i think its more you're the kind of person who is always right the dealership my friend works at used to have a cutaway of the powerbomb on display and it looked exactly like that with just a smaller chamber

 

[duneracerweston]

Well heres the inside of mine and I could swear it feels like the is nothing but the outer tube!

 

[headache]

my powerbomb is made like beastly says. if you look in the end of the header you can see holes drilled in the pipe..

 

[Mathius]

Thats interesting..
I thought they were just an open flare, and were designed kinda like a resonator?
I also thought the expanded part worked like a small expansion chamber, and scavenged a little bit of exhaust? Which could be what it does???
I dunno how they work now, but I know they do. lol
