I will soon probably be giving my white bros pipe to my dad and purchasing an Alba stage three performance kit. What do you guys think about this pipe? experiences, the good and the bad. If there is any bad!! LOL.

Thanks guys, and all input is greatly appreciated.

 

The Alba Stage 3 is very loud. First off. LOL. It comes with the Open Race End Cap, and the pro design K&n with jet's. The jet's they send are just about perfect. It takes alittle tinkering with the needle, to get it perfect. If you take care of the pipe with a good chrome polish, then it will not rust like some people say. But that is with nearly all pipes. You can just throw them on and never clean them right.

The bottom end, and mid range power is unreal compared to stock. Even on CT's own dyno, the Alba pipe has the highest horsepower at 4000rpm's. That's with the disc's and spark arrestor. In the pipe shootout, B.S. or not, the Alba pipe came in third on CT's dyno, only .1hp lower then Graydon(2nd), and like 1hp less then CT. I'm sure the open end cap more then makes up for that with the disc/spark arrestor.

Some say the shootout was crap, some don't. The customer service with Alba is also very good. After I pressure washed the logo off the pipe, not the metal decal you get, but the black logo on the decal, I called up Alba and they sent me 2 new metal decals, and 4 new logo stickers for the bike's plastic or truck back glass.

With the Stage 3 Kit, you get the full jet kit....jet's and needle. You get a K&N Filter, with the Pro Design Intake, and outwear prefilter. Plus the full system with Race End Cap. $577 is a great price for what you get.

Now a lot of people will think I'm saying all this cause I got a Alba pipe, but if I didn't like the product I got from Alba, I would have sold it at the drop of a hat and got something else. But the sound of the Alba pipe is unreal. It's loud, and not stupid loud, but awesome loud.

If you do get this pipe...you will not be disappointed. A lot of people like to pick the pipe they got for everyone to get, and I do to. It's good to reccomend a good product. But like I said, if this pipe was anything less then unbelieveable, I wouldn't reccomend it to anyone. I would have sold out for something else. But you will not be disappointed.
