I know the design was revised a while back and was supposed to push the pitch higher, but it seems like those changes completely altered the toneāand not in a good way. This sounds muted and kind of lifeless compared to what we were originally presented with.
Also makes me wonderāwere the...
I hate to say it, but⦠this sounds really off to me.
Itās not even in the same ballpark as the original clip we were shown. Iām wondering if the latest revisions to the system completely changed the tone, because what Iām hearing now is not what sold me on it in the first place.
Honestly...
Youāre really about to make me unpack seven boxes of metalātwo of which look like a stainless-steel intestine puzzleālay everything out like Iām prepping for an autopsy⦠and then somehow repack it all back into those perfectly foam-imprinted slots like I work for NASA, huh? š
You already know...
Just got finished weighing the entire system including gaskets, bolts, clamps, springs, etc....
105lb - that's from the exhaust flanges back to the mufflers , the brackets are 6lb/side btw, pics of brackets coming later on tonight
Quick update :
-They will not be providing the harness for Exhaust Valve this round due to them struggling to find a manufacture who is willing to tackle this project at this time...I ordered 2 this am from the suggested vendor .
-The "high clearance cross member" is about 7-10 days...
He sent a cad drawing of the crossmember and it interference..... if the new part he makes is executed correctly it will be fine but if not....I'm going to stay positive for now. Tomorrow I'll post the cad drawings of the cross member he sent me and the mounts that bolt to the engine, I believe...
THE EAGLE HAS LANDED.!!!!!
ā¦buuuuut letās just say she didnāt exactly stick the landing without a little drama.
First off ā credit where itās due. The fabrication work is seriously impressive. The welds are clean, consistent, and look like they were laid down by someone who actually cares...
My kit officially shipped out today⦠and yeah, Iām way more excited about this than a grown adult probably should be.
As soon as it lands, itās going straight to a buddyās shop ā no ālet me admire the boxes in the garage for a weekā phase. Weāre throwing it on the lift and getting right to work...
This is the latest update from Martin @ Concept 8-4-1 :
Hey Guys,
Everything is ready! (minus 5" tips, 4" tips will be included for now until the 5" are ready in June)
We have started to pack orders. It is more of a challenge than expected, it's 7 boxes per system with several components...
Iāll reach out again and see if I can get a fresh update on this elusive setup. Last word was MarchāApril, so maybe weāre finally about to hear some Voodoo symphony. With any luck, the wait pays off big in both tone and performance ā really hoping the juice is worth the squeeze. Iāll share...
