Great explanation, Dave of exhaust comparisons definitely shows a low end dip on the cobra that’s why people look for the kromewerx D&D, thunderheader etc.

[@edwardsmith7409]

I learned this the hard way. I bought the Rinehart bike ran like absolute sh$t. Switched to the Khrome Werks runs great.

[@Hooijnbvn]

Same here.

[@stew078]

Makes sense, especially after speaking to you about the exhaust I've and potential upgrades...great content Dave.

[@JDsCycleWorks]

Thanks for the watch Stew!

[@Jim_Berry]

Dave, have you ever tested a Fullsac header pipe? Would love to see it compared to the KW system. Thanks Dave!

[@Hellbentbiker]

I would really like to see a khrome werks 2-2 vs a leading 2-1 (kw, d&d, thunderheads, sawicki).

[@marvelharris9540]

My cobra slip ons for my softail produced a beautiful torque curve with no dips..zippers cam.

Have you ever used the fuel moto tunable inserts in any of these less desirable exhaust systems? I have them in my rinehart exhaust with dbx baffles. You definitely can tell a difference when i installed them on the bottom end.

[@nickricholetti754]

I’m down in Phila But i think i’m. gonna use you guys next fall for some twin cam engine work and dyno💪🏻

[@ericroadking7564]

Great work and information Dave!! Are stock clutch springs adequate when you are installing torque cams? Do you see alot of clutch slip?

[@BWTT]

Is a 2 into 1 Chrome Works exhaust a good exhaust for a torque for a twin cam 117

[@daveb8457]

I enjoyed this a bunch. What is the name or stock number of your Khrome Werks system? I have an S&S 2-1 system on mine with a RS468 cam and hi flo breather. The torque profile is not acceptable to me so I'm thinking of a KW system like yours but all chrome.

[@Avankaurparmar]

Dave can u possibly do the s&s cam or whatever cam but compare the kromewerks 2-1 vs d&d 2-1 the best performance ones that are available for baggers?? Pls

[@Hellbentbiker]

This!

[@andrewwatt8726]

I was hoping to hear your thoughts as to why they are so different in that tq range. How are KW mnfd' designed differently than the Cobra or Rinehart's that make such a difference?

[@kendean2119]

Are you using the same head pipe and just swapping out the mufflers?

[@d.sandell2555]

Thank's Dave. 👍

[@Chilllybob]

Will krome werks slipon mufflers work better than cobra neighbor haters on a stock decatted head pipe, stock cam, air filter

[@JDsCycleWorks]

Yes they will!
