To Tighten or not To Tighten?

[rooster_20]

On my white-brothers pipe how tight it too tight with the allen screws in the back? Should they be snug or tight as I can get them?

[key4202003]

just watch the disks as you tighten them, if they flex, your too tight. i just go snug, with my finger as close as i can get to the 90 degree angle in the wrench, that way you have to try to really get them on, and overthghtening it is not an issue, how many disks do you run? the more you have the better the flow is, and louder. the less, closer to stock...

I run 12 disks but i recently took the spark arrestor out but I herd that it made you slower so Im gonna put it back in. How many is the ideal ammount?

[key4202003]

i put 12 in, but you can order more... taking out the spark makes you rev faster, not make you slower... rejet if you do anything!

I already put a dynojet kit in but a lot of people say you lose more hp if you take the spark arrestor out.

I took the spark arrestor out, along with all the plates, i think it might be the best way to go. Its a little loud, but with all the plates in i couldn't tell a difference and when i took em all out i did. Thats just me though, and if i were you i would run it open or put all the plates in with the spark arrestor included. Thats JMO though.

I will put all the plates in like I had it before. Thanks for the help!

Be sure to throw some anti-seize on the bolts before putting them back in.;)
