Paul Bryant Headers!

As your Staintune system is made to slide straight onto the stock header, it will slide straight onto my header with the reducer that I supply.
A thought that I have just had, where the staintune connects to the header, does it use the original seal at that position, if it does, I could make the header slightly longer so that you don't use the reducer and if the I.D. of the Staintune unit is 2" it would then slide straight onto my tail pipe and you would loose the restriction of the step down.


There is no seal just metal to metal piping. Do you think it would be a good idea to take my exhaust apart and measure it?

No, no need to pull it apart Mully. The tail pipe of the stock header is 1¾" O.D. so that means the I.D. of the Staintune unit will be the same.
You would need to have the reducer on the end of my header as the tail pipe is 2" O.D.
I make my cross over pipe with a 2" inlet, that way you can either use the original CAT seal, or slide it straight onto my header with out the reducer.
 
I really like the work you have done. Do you have any dyno results for these? I would be very interested to see some numbers to justify the cost.
No, I haven't had a dyno but would really like to find one soon who can tune, just using TuneECU. I don't want to spend $500 plus dollars on a piggyback fueling system like PCV or Dobek to squeeze out a few more HP's or get better mileage. The bike is running so good right now it's ridiculous.:)

Wish I could give you an estimate of the power but can't.:( That is one reason I did each modification incrementally, so I could at least quantify in some way what I was achieving. The RamAir alone, not much just noise? Opened the secondaries, nothing? Copied the I3 tables to I2 and I1, big jump, very impressive. Replaced stock mufflers with DE-CAT'd stock mufflers, might have felt something but not much. Replaced stock manifold with Paul Bryant headers, big big jump!:thumbsup: Loaded tune from HansO, big jump again!:thumbsup:

Also, the relative value of HP/torque is extremely subjective. If you are looking for a straight slope comparison of dollars to hp/torque, CES or Carpenter might have a better deal? But I was also considering aesthetics, lower end torque and midrange, sound (minimal noise increase), protrusion beyond the stock manifold, retaining the stock look of the Roadster mufflers etc. For my purposes this combination was perfect and well worth the money.

If I do find a dyno tuner I will certainly post the charts. I know that's less subjective and would help others deciding what modifications are worth to them.


BTW are you still looking for another set of stock mufflers to modify?
 
I would like to see some numbers, but I do like the look of the Viking headers. But if I'm spending money, I want the most power for it.
And no I'm not looking anymore. I'm happy with mine until I do decide to upgrade to a full system. Thanks for remembering, I do appreciate it.

Here is some numbers for you on the Paul Bryant exhaust. Scroll down the page.

New header and exhaust fitted today

Or go with CES or Carpenter..... there are numbers floating all over the net for those.

The numbers will be different for every bike since people have done different things to their bike.

Three exhaust and three numbers to spend your money on. $hit or get off the pot man. lol
 
BTW, for those who'd rather save a little and not purchase the Paul Bryant crossover, he provides this reducer to adapt his header to any stock set up. Gives you a good idea of his quality and innovation, and his desire to provide custom solutions for each individual. This is also HPC coated.

Something's wrong with that last picture that's not a metric bolt,seriously though nice looking piece
