Its flying. What's up with it?
« on: 13 December 2013, 20:55:37 »

Driving home tonight, car felt exceptionally quick.

Much quicker than normal. Whats wrong? :-\ ;D


Not complaining , but I'm worried that either something is lean and about to go pop, or there was something wrong before that's corrected itself. But I can't say I ever noticed it being down on power, just it feels like its got more power now.

Yeah yeah I know its seat of the pants and I'm probably imagining it. But I keep thinking back to when I bust the original multi ram trying to get the bag pipes out with the plenum still on. Replaced it with one off the mv6 and its had a pronounced peak at 4k since. Today that peak just keeps climbing.
 Description might imply that the rear multi ram isn't working, but it's been like that for a year or so, and TB will confirm there's not much wring with the power output compared to his 3.2. Multi rams tested on numerous occasions with tech 2 and never found a fault.

Is there any way one fully working multi ram can work better than another...?

Odd, to say the least. :-\

Low temperatures and high humidity as the air is denser will all help with power output.  :y :y :y

On my first bike a Honda 250, where I ragged it everywhere it had a habit of breaking piston rings, but is always seemed to run better when this initially happened, then it got rapidly worse.  :-[ :-[ :-[

I'm aware of that though Rods, this is more pronounced, I'm sure it is.

If it seems to be performing better than normal then it's probably about to blow up  ;D
