Got any pics of the "hand coned adjustable exhaust"?
Sounds interesting! That frame brace is STOUT Very Happy !!!
No pics.We havent made it yet.My friend makes them for banshees and trx's.To get the most out of it I would assume you would need a dyno.It consist of a male and female center section so you can adjust the tuned length.

Cool.So do the exhaust for the karts and R.C.s constantly adjust with more or less throttle?We are making one that is adjustable but not that crazy.It wont be continuously moving.

Well...those RC exhaust that I had 15 years ago didn't adjust with throttle position, just had some sort of "wing nuts" to adjust to engine bast performance, the header lenght could also be adjusted with a kind of "rubber tube".

Yup.That pretty much what Im making minus the header adjustability.Thanks for the enlightenment though.I didnt know that kind of stuff was available for RCs or karts and now I do.

There are different Power Valve Systems, depend on the manufactures, Honda had a "V-tacs" (Variable Torque Amplification Chamber System) on their Honda RC 50 years ago....

Soeone told me that the YPVS (Yamaha power valve system) is the most reliable system out there...

Regards,
