It looks the stock canopy will have to be cut into a little bit on a Raptor 60. If you get a chance, could you measure from the forward end to the header manifold( exhaust inlet) of the muffler? Thanks, Bob

Bob, you should have been at Brooks! You could have checked it out in person. Sounds good on a 91

You must be one of those guys who live on the wet costal side of the mountains Where stuff like rain and fog persist?

MP II is in hand it's got a very nice polished finish to it and it is very big. Will see how much I have to trim off my canopy.

Furyflyer,
I noticed in the pic that it seems to have a wedge shaped chunk of metal that comes with it...is this a spacer that cocks the muffler out and away from the machine?....also will this pipe work on a 61WC....i read on his site that its for 80-91...just wondering,i like the power my muscle pipe gives but i cant for the life of me get the dang thing mounted securely enough to keep it from vibrating...i thought i had a vibration somewhere else on my machine that was causing the pipe to shake,but i borrowed a friends Hatori muffler and all vibrations came to a halt...so i know its the pipe shaking causing my vibration....just looking at other options than a hatori

Here's a pic of the wedge it's made to work with either a OS 60 ,70,90 or a YS 80 90.

It looks like it may stick out far enough to miss the Raptor canopy too?

Paul... Would you be so kind to post a few more pics - of the heli with MP2 at a little longer distance - maybe allso form tre front of the heli.... I fear it's quite ugly - especially on the very slim Fury.

Here is a thread with some pics of the MP11 on a R-90. Looks like it just fits without cutting the canopy. Bob

Default OS70 w/ MPII

Have you had a chance to ring the OS70 out with the MPII. What do you think?

I am considering doing the exact same setup (Fury 60, OS70, & MPII).

Thanks,
Darren

Ooo yes it runs soo good lot's of power.I still have to run it rich do to poor cooling, but I'm soon to have a Hyper head on the 70 which will fix that problem. I'm going to be putting one on my YS80 soon I have a Hatori on it now. The MP made the mid range sound and work much better to.

What pipe or pipes have you used on the 70 other than the MPII?
What gear ratio and disc size are you running?

I have been running the 70 on my Fury Expert with a Hatori SB15.
9.3-1 and SAB710's. I am still in the break-in stage and have not been able to ring it out yet.

Anyone run this engine on 9.0-1 ratio?

I'm using the stock Fury gearing and I was using a TT 80-90 muffler using WC30%.
