Thanks for clearing that up.That is because the power valve cover will provide more gain when using a rev pipe versus a bottom end pipe (like the gnarly). The bottom end pipe already has alot of volume with the design of the pipe itself.
With a rev pipe it adds volume to the exhaust and makes it behave like a gnarly when the power valve is closed and the pv chamber open to the exhaust tract. When the power valve opens - the pv chamber is "turned off" - so the rev pipe does it job up top.
Bottom line, with the oem pipe, doma, etc. it will buy you some bottom with no cost to the top end power.

Yes, it is, but through the spring not directly acting on the drum valve shaft. Knob twists spring in either direction on one side, spring adds/subtracts force to system through drum valve shaft on other side.
The PV is actuated by RPM, starts to come on at a certain point. Depending which way you turn the knob you either "help" or "hinder" it by preloading or un-preloading the spring (is that a word?)
So now you have an oversize PV cover (which some like, others dislike) that also allows you to adjust when it comes on to a point.
Personally I like the oversize PV cover. I wish I could afford to try the adjustable one.
deluc,
Big thanks for the Trusty porn and results.
So, massive trials power for the technical sections without fear of hp midrange hit then adjust for quick hard hitting hp right off the bottom rpm?
Hehe..
Yeah, I was King for a day...
It's kind of complicated with the measurements, coz there is too many angels and nothing on that thing, line up with eachother. but the optimal depth of the cover is 25.5mm (1 Inch) so a 24.5mm spacer and the original cover would do the same job.
Right now I'm testing a prototype of the ajustable version, with a simple bolt on design (that fits without any mods on the bike), and it just might come up for sale in the near future, hopefully at a more reasonable price than the existing products. So keep your eye open for new product Announcements.
