What happens to air when it's forced through a smaller opening...that's right..it travels faster. My Dubach pipe's header was smaller than stock.

Thats odd, my sparks pipe is wider from the head to the tail end. I guess it is just who makes the pipe and does their homework.... JMO

The gytr head pipe is smaller than the stocker because its designed to work with stock engines. A smaller headpipe is better for stock engines but the larger pipe allows for headroom for future modifications. You lose some midrange with a larger diameter headpipe.

I agree with u there...The full GYT-R System put out more power then my full Yoshi Comp Complete did...The Yoshi's header was slightly larger around...yet i could feel a difference just a matter of 2-4HP im thinking.

A narrow pipe with a tight curve makes more HP down low (RPM) Larger wider curve pipe makes it at Higher (RPM)
