MAB Power vs. Akra 2-1
Well, tried the akra out a couple of days ago and in comparison to the MAB it was a pig down low but at 6k rpm there where a real strong kick and away it went. So now i´m thinking of keeping the MAB for steret use....hmmm.....

Thats simple just put on the shorter red bellmouths or is that in simple swedish shortet
red bellmouths.. and ride in a lower gear to keep it over 6000rpm and watch your speed tho or is that FART
is simple swedish
you don't want to get a 6mths and $850 or is that karona or is that KARONEEEE in simple swedish
or is that already plural for Kro as ona being the plural ...mmmm but my English is better than your Swedish I know

Mate if you don't want to keep the Akra I would to buy it off you. I've been trying to find an Akra 2-1 system for months now. Please drop me a PM if you want to sell (or if anyone else has one to sell please let me know)

UPS came with it today and it´s already programmed and tested on a bike with same specs so it should be a quick fitTrixz wrote:Hurry up then, and give us all resultsKillerwhale wrote:Hmm, bought a programmable CDI so we´ll see if i can fix the low down a bit.

I have to say that's my epxerience as well with Akra end cans and why I run with the Devil can.Killerwhale wrote:...Got meself an arrow stubby can (260mm) wich fits the akra´s 60mm and now it´s SO much better....shoots out from 2k revs again so i´m a happy camper....but will still take out a bit on the stubs.Killerwhale wrote:Well, tried the akra out a couple of days ago and in comparison to the MAB it was a pig down low but at 6k rpm there where a real strong kick and away it went.

2 - 1 systems are notoriously difficult to setup on TDM/TRX engines. Usually a big hole in the middle. I tried a Devil 2 - 1 on my 850 TDM but despite trying to sort out the jetting, I reverted back to a Laser 2 - 2

Yep - I've got Akra headers with a big bore devil can (and hundreds of pounds spent getting it right on the dyno!!)dandywarhol wrote:2 - 1 systems are notoriously difficult to setup on TDM/TRX engines.

Re: MAB Power vs. Akra 2-1
Could it be that one cyl is leaner than the other and when you go 2-1 it´s hard to see what jetting is optimal....just a thought....phuk72 wrote:Yep - I've got Akra headers with a big bore devil can (and hundreds of pounds spent getting it right on the dyno!!)dandywarhol wrote:2 - 1 systems are notoriously difficult to setup on TDM/TRX engines.
