norcal616 Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 thr carbon tipped one shows a much smoother and linear dyno graph as well more power than the old style one... 2012 wr250f - C-class 30+ age group 2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition-80whp 2015 fj-09- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich tune by 2WDW @120whp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kernowjim Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 The carbon tipped version has a non removable baffle to comply with Euro4 emissions regulations. I'd go for the all titanium one - or remove the centre stand and get the FZ/MT09 carbon can version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leonardlloyd Posted October 27, 2017 Share Posted October 27, 2017 The 2016 version peaks at lower rpm, weighs less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

del13r Posted October 30, 2017 Author Share Posted October 30, 2017 yeah, i really just should have looked at the graphs a little closer. The S-Y9R8-HEGEHT does appear to have a more linear power curve, or the dyno operator must have been doing a better job that day. Also noticed the date in the bottom left of the dyno graph is 3 years newer (2016 vs 2013 for S-Y9R3-HAFT). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koth442 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 I kinda wished I'd have gotten the carbon tip instead of the Ti tip. But I love my Ti Akro either way. '15 FJ09 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kernowjim Posted October 31, 2017 Share Posted October 31, 2017 Frightening dip in power curve at 3000rpm on the earlier version - that would be expensive to resolve Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Premium Member builderbob Posted October 31, 2017 Premium Member Share Posted October 31, 2017 I just installed the carbon tip version. I did it more for sound than any slight increase in power that it might offer. Nice to know that there might be some, although I didn't notice anything significant.
