I don`t think I have heard anything Bad about the Powerbomb. Rico doesn`t want to give his Up. You would be Happy with it. What kind of Slip-On do you have?

I don`t know if the Powerbomb Header will Work with a Yoshi Comp Series Slip-On or not.

The powerbong works with all aftermarket silencers designed to fit the stock headpipe.

I guess I didn`t think about that. If you have a Yoshi Slip-On on your Stock Header, the Powerbomb will Fit. I would go for it.

The PowerBomb is the Best Header you can Buy.

I the powerbong bigger than the stock headpipes or does it just have that bulge in it?

Dave400ex

I would think the Headpipes are Bigger. We need Rico in here. He would know.

I have the Power bomb and love it. LRD makes a good head pipe also. I think that Mity Mo has a LRD on his.
I like that fact that the Power bomb helped quiet down my T-4 also.:D

powerbongs rock...:eek: They are great pipes,,there also bigger in diameter than a stock header,,only thing is you'll probably need to up your pilot jet with this header,,I know I had to..

What would it do with a stock silencer? I have to be carefull about noise(sucks)

Oynot400, Doesn`t LRD only Sell a Full Pipe?

Thanks for the Help Rico. MadcapEX, I think you would feel a Difference in Power over Stock. If you don`t want Noise, get the Powerbomb Header and the PowerCore Q. That is only like 5 DB louder then Stock.

I think Ill get me one and use it with my TC pipe!

Chad, You will have to make sure that the Big Bulge won`t be in the Way after you Cut the Pipe.

Do you really need one if you dont have any engine mods? I heard that if you dont have any engine mods that it wont add much and to stay with the stocker?

I am pretty sure that you can get a head pipe from LRD because Mity Mo's engine builder was going to get me one. I am not 100% sure though, Mo might know.

TRFOXX, Do you have an Aftermarket Slip-On? If you already have a Aftermarket Slip-On you would Feel more Power over Stock. TC told me the Stock Headpipe puts out the Most Torque. There are Headerpipes out there that make more Power then Stock though. Everybody is very Happy with the Powerbong.

Oynot400, Maybe he has a Hook Up or something. On their Site it is only a Full Pipe. If you can Buy the Header by Itself, then the Header would have to be like the Powerbomb, right? It can fit all Stock Style Slip-Ons?

Rico if your reading this will you look at your powerbong and tell me if I cut 5 1/2 inches off the end of it if I will still have enough room to clamp on my TC pipe
Thanks
Warriorman, I would think the 505 should have enough torque!!! I will prolly get the powerbong if it will work!!

03-26-2002, 07:43 AM

The powerbong's gonna put out more HP on a stock or built motor,, I noticed a difference when I added it to mine with just a slip-on,,and it added a nice mid - top end pull...gonna be putting on my new bills thunder pipe on tonight,,woo hooo

Dave400ex

Chad, It better have enough Torque. If not, something is Wrong. I think the Powerbong will Work Great. You will have to see what Rico says.

Rico, Let us know how the Bill`s Pipe is. I want to see a Picture of that Bad Boy.

ChadEXer

Let us know how you like it Rico.
Rico If I cut 5 1/2 inches off the powerbong will I still have enough room to clamp on my TC????

03-26-2002, 11:52 AM

I'll find that out tonight chad when I get home and post it here tomorrow..;) I'd also ask Tom about it,,cuz the end of the powerbong tapers down for a slip on to fit it,,it's pretty big other than that,,I'll measure the diameter of the header and see if you can cut 5 1/2 inches off...kewl beans..:D

Dave400ex

03-26-2002, 12:32 PM

I`ll ask Tom about that too. Rico you will have to tell Chad though, TC will say to Run the Stock Header.
