well bert 2.0 has put together a few of his modded exhaust pipes now ....and he is finding some new and interesting things along the way .
but for us guys, the sound out of the "k" is a beutifull thing
so far amongst our mob, there is
bert 2.0 ( bert2 special)
alby (bert2 special)
saxon 7 (bert2 special)
charlie 99 (staintune )
klompy (staintune )
two wheels better (motad )
all with a great noise coming out the rear ....not so loud as the open pipes of days gone by ....but a solid thump and crackle kinda thing ....turn heads indeed .
the performance benefits are immediatly noticeable ...and the "grin " soon follows after fitting one
onya bert ....there are a lot of smiles around this area of aussie
this prompts me to start some investigation into mixture settings and adjustments to get the best from our old girls
namely an oxygen sensor thingy to get the mixtures right,
so if anyone knows the technical (electronically and physical ) of making such a device please chime in .
im not enchouraging anybody to buy one ...unless there is some kind of cheap adaptor availabe to suit a good digital multimeter .
i was thinking of trying to develop a 2 wire ox sensor (out of a car ) and making some form of electronic output to a digitalmeter to get near a betterstolich mix value by adjusting the afm etc ..
