Are scalvini pipes any good?
The Scalvini system is the best-looking system on the market. The Scalvini gave up some on the bottom but had a smooth transition into the mid with a strong pull all the way to the top. Over-rev was much better with the Scalvini than with the stock pipe.
What are scalvini pipes made of?
Scalvini uses only the finest materials including stainless steel, aluminum, titanium and carbon fiber, for optimum performance, weight savings and durability. Scalvini exhausts don’t just produce more power, but usable power and torque which insures faster lap times.
What are 2 stroke pipes made of?
Material: Lighter-than-stock 20-gauge steel is used for the body of the pipe, while 19-gauge steel is used for the header portion.
What is a cone pipe?
Scalvini Two-Stroke Factory Cone Pipes are hand-assembled cone-by-cone to make an exhaust that looks as good as it performs. Each cone is hand cut, pounded and welded to our stringent manufacturing guidelines. Using only the finest materials available, Scalvini produces exhaust systems for most modern two-strokes.
Does a 2 stroke need back pressure?
For a 2-stroke engine, the least amount of back pressure inside the exhaust the better. If you look at performance chainsaws (yah, it’s a real thing), you’ll see an exhaust system which has a broad section in the middle of the pipe, then goes back to a smaller size.
Why do 2 strokes have a weird exhaust?
That bulge is called an expansion chamber, and it is used to increase the horsepower of the engine (see this page for a photo). This technique only works on two-stroke engines, which is why you see it on a lot of dirt bikes but not on street bikes. Most street bikes use four-stroke engines.
Why do two strokes have a big exhaust?
The big exhaust pipes on a two stroke, called an “expansion chamber”, are like megaphones that are designed to return some of this fuel to the cylinder before the port closes.
