I look forward to the day when someone with easy dyno access does a proper "Chamber Shootout!" with as many known expansion chambers on the same bike/dyno/

I'd love to see the difference between stock, wirges, fbg, fpp, denco, wheelsmith, bassani, tomcat, wtf, nev/leo pipes, allspeed, specII/purplehaze/fbg stamped style, higgspeeds, jollymoto, etc....


You forgot ProFlo, which my seat of pants review is very good! :thumbup:

I'm 99.9% sure The Gast pipes are the old Pro-Flo's, which were Denco spec with a tapered header.

I don't think these (current) Gast chambers have tapered head pipes.

These are definitely FBG pipes just made before they started to paint the manifolds red. These are the FBG pipes from their website

I didn't know FBG shipped those H2 chambers without the red manifolds !!!! I had a set of the H2 pro flows and they looked exactly like your FBG pipes and manifolds.I bought a set of FBG H2 previous generation stingers and street chambers and those pipes shipped with the Red Manifolds !!!! I guess you learn something everyday !!!!!! Cool Pipes !!!!

yeah.. pretty sure the FBG and Proflo's are the same.

Do you guys remember about 7-8 years ago when Brett Ritter was BLOWING OUT those pipes on ebay for what? $250.00 or $275 a set??
I bought 2 sets.... :lol:

I know a couple of guys that bought 4 or 5.
