Mine has the W/B and other mods, never pops. Kinda wondering if it still isn't the rev limiter, and possibly people aren't used to that.

Thanks..got a friend to do it up for me..sorry copyrighted! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I agree..seems like it might be the limiter..but hard to say..one guy on here says it pops around 8500, seems pretty close to the rev limiter!

Just put the pipe on mine 2 weeks ago...didnt pop before and doesnt pop after. Sounds fishy though there are so many people talking about it though. Maybe Polaris regs arent use to shifting gears and hitting limiter.( Just kidding don't get riled up) I have heard many believe it is the CDI and companies are working on a replacement.

I ran mine hard all day long yesterday, never a problem. Even purposely tried shifting late.

I tried to hit the limited myself before..just to see what it would do..but it just kinda lost power..like in a car..no popping, but my pipe is stock.

Scotts88, mine is still stock too and does the same, its like the limiter in a car, just hits it and doesn't pull any more, no popping though...Somebody on here said hitting the rev limiter should sound and feel like someone was turning the key off and on, but I have decided that can't be true.....
