The Cannondale brochure which is based on a SuperFlow dyno (not a DynoJet which yeilds higher numbers)test says the Cannibal has 33 HP, also says the 400ex has 21, Raptor has 28, and DS has 37. It also says the Moto & Blaze are 39HP (results of a pipe and FI mapping) so for all intensive purposes they are "piped" Cannibals, and you can't really "pipe" a Moto or a Blaze

now, lets do a theoretical comparison...
fact: dirtwheels "piped" a Raptor for a 34% increase in HP
fact: piping a Cannibal yeilds an 18% increase in HP
fact: dirtwheels "piped" a 400EX for a 2HP increase
assumption: based on the Bomb forum, a piped DS yeilds 2HP as well

using the SuperFlow dyno numbers...
that would give a "piped" 400EX 23HP & a ptw ratio of 0.0615
&
that would give a "piped" DS650 39HP & a ptw ratio of 0.0821
&
that would give a "piped" Raptor 38HP & a ptw ratio of 0.0952
&
that would give a "piped" Cannibal 39HP & a ptw ratio of 0.1040
__________________________________________________ ________________________

mathmatically, that means all of the following scenerios would be EQUAL in a drag race:

a "piped" 400EX with a 120lb. rider
a "piped" DS650 with a 264lb. rider
a "piped" Raptor with a 324lb. rider
a "piped" Cannibal with a 364lb. rider

just food for thought...

<< the Cannibal has 33 HP, also says the 400ex has 21, Raptor has 28, and DS has 37. From the #'s I have heard the most, the Cannibal has 39, 400ex has 26, Raptor 36 (or somewhere around there), and DS at 42. I dunno, I wanna see what the real #'s are for myself. >>



Hmmm.... I could have sworn that I said those exact same words. I believe thats plagerism. J/K, I don't care. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

Uh oh... I think I actually paid attention to something my English teacher said [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]... that's scary [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-frown.gif[/img].

In horse racing it's called handycapping they add weight I believe so you can't be under X amount of pounds.

That also means I can carry a cooler large enough to quench the thirst of several riders for the day.

sorry about the plagerism...

I copy and pasted it, intended to quote it... then started to edit it... but, I guess I messed that up

sorry again, wasn't trying to pass those words off as my own... just wanted to state the facts about the brochure
