I decided that my Yamaha Bolt XV950 needs to go faster. It's a great bike, but it could be greater. Check out how I built a full stainless custom tubular manifold from scratch!

@nicholasdigiacomo636 Жыл бұрын

Not sure if someone mentioned this already, the issues with your camera could be caused by proximity to your tig welding. High frequency welding does tend to generate some impressive RF output. That RF can be involuntary inducted into microelectronic components. I hope this helps. Your videos are super informative and greatly appreciated. Thank you for your work.

What kind of turbo did you use? I want to turbo my Honda Shadow VT 750 and I've looking on ebay for cheap turbos between 100-200 Euros. All of the turbos I found were for 1.3-2.0L car engines, are those too big? I don't really care about massive power gains, do you think turning down the boost would be enough to not blow up my engine? Also did you add cooling to your bike/turbo?

I can't express how good it is to see someone doing it properly using welded in, carefully selected, bend sections rather than use the over-used wank pie and lobster cuts. Those who know will appreciate your work! 👍 The only thing better would be bending them out of single pipe lengths. On that, are you going to leave the welds exposed, or grind and polish them back for a (slightly weaker) smooth, one piece appearance?

I’d recommend a Dynojet PowerCommander 4. It has a baseline, and from there you can simply add or subtract numbers on the graph which is broken down to 500's of rpm, 1k, 1.5k, 2k, 2.5k etc. it’s really easy to use and you can save your maps and install a toggle switch too

When you realize your 1200cc vtwin at 6500rpms (7900 liters per powerband) is being out-displaced by a 600cc @ 16,000rpms (10,200 liters per powerband), so you have to up the volumetric efficiency. Beautiful work in the vid!
