Hi guys, finally got around to installing my dynamite 086 pipe on my stock savage x 4.6 The truck runs really well and has excellent top end, however it does seem to have lost some bottom end punch. I am aware this pipe is made to increase top end performance but does this mean I get worse low end than with the stock pipe? I thought it should be more or less the same. The trucks screams on the top and is running better, cooler, which is great. Maybe I should consider leaning out the LSN? Any thoughts? Or is this just whats was supposed to happen? I can live with it but... I would like to still get some wheelies, which is not happening at the moment... thanks!

you will have to adjust the settings on your engine when changing your pipe

I did, just didnt want to over do it! Thats why im asking if this is normal, if so to what extent, and do you think it sounds like a LSN issue...

The 086 delivers quite a bit more fuel pressure than the stock pipe, so I am going to guess that you are too rich. It is hard to say you need a full turn or half turn without hearing it run. Just make you adjustments small and you can always back up. Here is a great tuning video from our friends at Hpi! Glen

Cool thanks! Will lean out the LSN!

and i would keep and eye on your temps too but also ask those who have the same engine and pipe combo, what temps they are normally running.

temp gauge is a good thing to have.
