Predator exhaust header

[bikesisbikes]

I'm getting all the parts gathered up for my build. I like the looks of this header but would really like some advice on how well it works and sounds.
Has anyone installed the particular header? How do you like it? How is the sound/volume? It appears the placement would almost dictate the use of a heat shield. What has been your experience?
A sound bite would be great.

Thanks
Denny

There are better headers for the price

That thing is gonna be an echo can and for that price you can find headers that are already ceramic coated.


Back when I was a kid I made something like that for a tec on a go cart. After a few minutes and you had a headache.

I think it would be loud too. That's why I asked if anyone had experience with them. I believe a motorcycle baffle could be slipped into that chamber end. I'm looking at it for style. I just don't want my desire for that style to leave me with something I can't ride.

It's not great ... Jmo

Looking for a premade kit only?

I am looking for that style. I like the belled end, without a muffler attached. Yes, a preformed unit would be best.

To bad they don't weld this on in place of the belled end.

That looks a lot like a Thunderheader or Rhinehart. You know either of them would work well!
