Is this just for Don or can anybody play?
With slipons you retain the collector of the stock max. If you reduce back
pressure behind the collector, you'll usually pick up a few horses. The
Supertrapp slipons are reputed to do just that. The Cobras and other 4-4
systems lose hp because they eliminate the scavenge function of a
well-designed collector. (They also screw up your low end, but other than
that, they're great.)
(For a too-thorough look at exhaust scavenge check the list archives for a
discussion concerning pipe coatings TC and I had quite a while ago.)
best,
Sat Tara
