No offense but the only Harley I like is the V-ROD can only imagine how one of those would run with a turbo.
There is a simple explanation for loud pipes; They Save Lives!
Here in Houston, I litteraly got run off the road 3-4 times . . . it was than that I decided to take the OEM pipes back off the bike, reinstalled the hookers and problem solved.
There are always idiots who "don't see you", but ....... they stay away when the drone of the pipes hit the car.
I don't like it loud, just loud enough for safety.
Now, having been around bikes most of my life and around TR's a short time, I would think twice about running a TR . . . . . at the track of course :tongue:.
Than again, by bike is a bagger and I prefer comfort over speed at my old age.
Anyway . . . I have fun reading your stories. They crack me up!
Be carefull out there.
I'm out testing out the new set of ported heads and port matched intake that Lou just installed for me.
Not sure what kind it was....it was one of the ones with the obnoxiously loud exhaust....sorry...best I can do for ya.
He was splitting the lane on the other side of the car next to me at a traffic light.
When the light turned green, I kinda rolled out with him until I heard him open it up, then I nailed it....completely wasted him.
A mile or so up the road, I was turning left, and as he went by on the right, he held out the thumbs up.
I dunno how quick Harleys are in the 1/4. I know they can't come close to a sprot bike, but they gotta be at least in the 13's right?
Mean Chicken's roller cam job is done . Came out nice & runs smooth. No Knock sensor issues or collapsed lifters. Like some have reported. Since this was a budget deal used the stock rockers & solid rocker shafts from TA perf. Next he needs at least a pt-61 turbo & he will be the fastest chicken known to man kind .It pulls a ton harder
The heads and intake gave it enough to blow the DR's off like they were street radialls...
....but.... I wanted a little more so it's back at Lou's for a 210/210 roller cam upgrade.....should wake the mid range and top end up a lot more...and that'll definitely put those mean ol' 03/04 Cobra's and Z06's behind me for good because they love the top of the track too.
I did this all with parts I had laying around. The chicken is not a rich man. He should start street racing for money.Besides the car pulls hard & runs just fine as is.
Nice Chicken.... very nice response. Kinda what im looking foward to.
Im looking foward to to seeing what kinda MPH I can run for sure in the spring.
