Ok here is the quick review.....
Instructions: (Not Rated!) None included
Parts: 4 1/2 thumbs up! All there! No extras (thus the half point reduction). High quality & great fit!
Installation: 4 1/2 thumbs up! Didnt have to remove shocks but slightly difficult to get onto exhaust port (oil up gasket first!). The standoff piano wire is just long enought to mount under the receiver screw and requires some thought before bending. Also, add a washer between the screw head and the mount before installing. This will hold it to the body better.
Sound: 5 thumbs up! Quieter yet sounds better than stock.
Power Effect: 5 thumbs up! Much better low end and some high end increase! Seemed to 'smooth' out engine running.
Looks: 5 thumbs up! Shine baby Shine!
Overall I give this pipe and header combo a 5 thumbs up! I like the locking pipe/header with the 3 springs. Solid! It took about 2 tanks to get the idle, HSN and LSN where they needed to be to realize the impact this pipe has. I was able to go back to stock on the LSN and had to increase idle and lean the HSN. I had the front wheels off the ground more than once! Smoothed out the overall running of the .21bb. This is one of the best upgrades I have done to my Savage yet!
Cost should be around 55$ even though retail list is 90$.
