As posted in another thread... They cleared Customs this morning and will be here tomorrow! I can finally post pricing as all taxes have been paid. It will retail for $929.99, but for all BadWeb members the 10% discount that I give on most of my parts and services WILL apply. Total cost for BadWebbers is $837 + shipping. Within a few days we will have a ceramic coated option available as well. Thanks, Pete |

is this system going to need tuning to run well or is this stock ECM friendly - all i plan on doing is exhaust and k&n - any dyno numbers on stock '09 ecm's? |

I am in the process of arranging dyno time so that I can accurately answer the questions posted above. In addition, two well known and respected Buell dealerships with excellent racing programs have agreed to test the pipe. Their findings will be reported independently. Thanks, Pete |

Dris has a bunch of pics, video and sound clips on his site at http://www.twinmotorcycles.nl/artikelen.asp?aid=56. The pics in the beginning are of the two prototype pipes. The production version can be found at the bottom of the page. Pete |

Hey easy have you run this on a stock ECM or mainly re-mapped ECMs? Are you going to post any new videos where you can really open the bike up? |

07xb12ss i did both, read this article. http://www.twinmotorcycles.nl/artikelen.asp?aid=56 HEre is the graph where I took a bone stock ecm, no reflash just put it in and made a run, the blue line is race ECM, the red line is stock ECM. When i put more time in understanding the capabilitys of the race ECM, I get more power out of it later on. And this is the maximum with the RACE ECM. My bike is still at the weldin shop, as soona s it arrives back, I start to make a ignition/fuel map for the stock ecm (Message edited by Easyrider on March 08, 2009) |

Easy, was the stock ECM you used for that comparison containing the second flash or the current(3rd) flash? I think I read somewhere on your article it had not been updated to the latest flash? |

Now that the Torque Hammers are here in the US... Let the testing begin. For those of you that have already purchased the pipe, please feel free to chime in when you get them installed. In the mean time, I have arranged for independent, professional testing of the pipe. This is an excerpt from my web site: Now that they are here is the US, GSD has selected two very accomplished racing programs to test the Torque Hammer independently. First, the road racing program at Ray Price HD/Buell in Raleigh, North Carolina (rayprice.com) has agreed to put the pipe to the test. The accomplishments of the Ray Price riders are well documented with Dave Estok, Jerry Reid Jr. and Jordan Richardson on board. When testing begins, the Torque Hammer exhaust will be tested on a stock bike with no tuning, on a lightly modified 1125R with commonly available fuel mapping software and on a third bike with the fully programmable Buell Race ECM. If testing proves positive, the CCS Expert SuperTwins machine of Jerry Reid Jr. will conduct long-term race testing throughout the 2009 season. Second, the racing department, under the direction of tuning expert Don Thutt, at Glendale HD/Buell in Glendale, CA (glendaleharley.com) has committed to testing the Torque Hammer as well. Don has expressed a great interest in this pipe for both his track day enthusiast customers and for the competitive Glendale road racing team. He will be testing the exhaust back-to-back on a stock 1125 machine and on their race prepped model. Glendale HD/Buell is always at the forefront of racing and racing development in CA and should add valuable insight to the performance capabilities of the Torque Hammer exhaust system. Both pipes were shipped yesterday so it will be a week or so before they get to the intended destinations. Should be a week or so thereafter that we will see some feed back from them. Pete |

How loud are these? Are they the quietest of all the aftermarket options? |

The sound is very nice. Not obnoxiously loud. There are sound clips on Dris' site...see the link referenced above in this thread. It is not at loud as the D&D or Jardine. Those are the only other two that I've heard in person. |

The first few TM pipes are shipping today. Here is what the ceramic coated version looks like.
FYI... We have connection cables for ECMspy in stock and tuning capabilities for this pipe also. |

I will definitely be picking one up. And then I'll be utilizing Xb9's tuning services. |
