1098 dash can be used and i would assume everything would be more plug and play without special eproms and dyno setup??
I never found the old mish mash performed very well and was a bastard to set up. 1098 loom/ecu means I can flash ecu's with free s/w, TPS reset plus a few a few other bits. Or annoy poor ole ChrisW.
Hi Doogalman, just stumbled upon your thread, i'm new to this forum job ! In the process of putting a 999R motor in my 996, got the frame mods for the throttle bodies sorted, but am gonna need a 57mm at least system on it, do you know what diameter the 1098 system is and how much cutting and shutting did it need to get it where you needed it ? A nice big 998 race system would be ideal (changing the manifolds) but I'm gonna struggle finding one of them I reckon. Any help gratefully received from you or anyone else.
I am building it with just a stock system but will measure it in the morning. Hoping to get my cuts welded up over the weekend. Only the rear section i have cut as everything else fits other than one of the lamda plugs which is right under the swingarm. That will be moved incase it is needed at a later date, as the 996 ecu didn't need it.
The headers on my system are 52mm going up to 56mm where the pipes are linked then my silencers are 52mm as i am using my old cored tails of my 996. The only cuts are from where the 1 branches back out to 2.
Will that system be big enough for the larger motor? I think the 1098 runs a 60mm as std (not certain tho)
I've read so many different things Paul, so I am going with it and see how it all pans out once up n running and eventually dyno setup, will need to gain a power commander for that though. Not overly worried about flat out free flow of exhaust as a big chunk of my riding is road based so smaller pipework for greater low/midrange. Time will tell.
Close , but we are uk bound Monday for the Christmas festivities so work will recommence in the new year. However i will be picking up some odds and ends while in the UK as some stuff is just so much easier there.
Yes i agree, i often order stuff from them. But it's stuff like silicone hoses other sundry stuff i still find easier and cheaper in the uk.
Pretty much what I did for my old Hybrid and with a PC3 and dyno time, gave a good 151hp at the wheel with a nice midrange. I did only have the one map made. Dyno guy stated that if I had the proper exhaust bungs in each pipeheader, so a map for each cylinder. My exhaust would have given slightly more. Something I never got around to as it was so nice to ride as it was. So this exhaust set up will be fine. PDQ in slough did my dyno set and after 3 hrs, ended up with a very smooth power delivery.
