9-6 pac time M-F

BLUE =
all stock stacks,
with stock exhaust

RED =
2 Factory Pro Billet stacks and
 2 short stock stacks
 and
still the stock exhaust

Dec 10, 08
Initial testing shows a healthy 4-6 hp boost, starting at about 7500 rpm and peaking at indicated 12,000 rpm.
There's a 5-6 boost at 8000, a 2-3 loss at 9000 and 3-5 boost above that.

When looking at the torque curves, you can see that the stock stacks produce a "bumpy" torque curve and the Factory Pro prototype stack stacks produce a wider, smoother, better averaging torque band.

It looks like neither the zx10 or the zx6r  like oval stacks. I might go out on a limb, here, but, I don't think that anything with a tuned intake tract likes an oval intake inlet.


All the HP figures are TRUE HP, not "dynojet HP). To get rough dynojet HP, multiply TRUE HP x 1.1 to 1.15 (depending on which dynojet dyno you want to try to mimic)

BLUE = all stock stacks, with stock exhaust

RED = 4 short stock stacks

4 KAWASAKI "SHORT" stacks, without FI retuning, seem to hurt the lowend (at least at full throttle and without FI retuning) and doesn't much help the topend.
Even though the EC997 dyno results show a slight gain at high rpm, the "gain" is well within a 1.2 HP tolerance.


All the HP figures are TRUE HP, not "dynojet HP). To get rough dynojet HP, multiply TRUE HP x 1.1 to 1.15 (depending on which dynojet dyno you want to try to mimic)
 

Notes from testing December 2008

1. Cooling system capacity good.
2. Bike tends to overcool, could use 185f thermostat to stabilize tuning settings and power output in cool weather.

1.0 to 2.0 TRUE, Loaded, real HP
(no misleading dealership level dynos used in testing!)

On the graph (click on it), you can even see that the fuel delivery was a bit leaner with the BMC - as evidenced by the lower red CO% line -
CO% is a much better way to derive estimated A/F Ratios as compared to wideband O2 sensors.

FIB-KAW-37619 S
BMC Street filter

$89.95

Street filter = Same as stock HP
(no misleading dealership level dynos used in testing, either!)

Feedback

Marc,

Just wanted to say "Thanks", again. I'm really impressed by your calling me to give me the info on the advance rotor. That, in my book, is "Going the extra mile."  That's what makes a company succeed.
Congrats!

Also I used Loctite 243-Threadlocker and Loctite 7471 Activator for your information on the nut of the roller bearing and onto the allen screw holding the star.

I hope you find the pictures - use fully.

Yours Humbly,

David Isaac

The extension of the laboratory for engines of the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology was completed in about 1935. Its architect was Rudolf Otto Salvisberg (1882-1940). He had a successful career in Berlin but returned to Switzerland after the advent of the Nazis. His architectural style was somewhat similar to that of Erich Mendelsohn. The staircase of the laboratory is in normal use but well preserved.
