DAFT QUESTION? Exhaust system 2-1-1?

Post by EGG »

Hi there,
This might sound stupid but is it possible to cap 1 of the outlet pipes at the end of the down pipes and run 1 end can? Seems so easy but what effect would it have on the engine if any? I take it that it would be louder.
Would be interesting to know. If you know a reason not to do it let me know. Could turn out to be a cheap mod.

Don't bother Egg.
It won't work :cry: The gas flow will be all to rock, probably too much back pressure and the proformance will suffer. You would definatley have to rejet and Vespas would beat you off the traffic lights with ease :oops: :oops:

I'm running a 2 into 1 at the moment while I decide what exhaust to fit next.
The bike has monster bottom end power but a bit of a flat spot at 6k but then my bike is not jetted for a single can at the moment.

It's a little on the loud side though which would put most people off.
