Re: Which Franspeed pipe do I go for?
JB should have a fresh batch of both pipes in early next week so I'll pick his brains then and book in for a dyno session.

Re: Taffy pipe upgrade??
I'd rather a expansion pipe than a clubman - kinda goes with the style of the scooter !Muttley McLadd wrote:What about a Ron Moss clubman?
That's pretty much the same setup as the TS I'm putting together. I'm going to run it with my RS clubman.

Re: HARRY BARLOW NEW BARREL
I bought one of his prototype T5 pipes from him at Peanut Duck about 5 years ago and found him a very knowledgeable pleasent bloke. The pipe was absoluty the nads. I took my T5 down to JB and we dyno'd it against a Taffy and a Scorpian and guess what won? - Harry's pipe. Even JB was suprised/impress...
