Big Blue Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 has it always done this? did you just put aftermarket pipes on it? mine make that sound but it is the way it is supposed to sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frocashmoney24 Posted January 11, 2004 Report Share Posted January 11, 2004 yea sometimes there is a pink thats normal for aftermarket pipes, but i would take off your head and chcck your pistons to make sure part of your skirt didnt break off, and get caught in the pipes, and tingin around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoin39 Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Most aftermarket pipes are thinner wall so when the airwaves hit it it makes a pinging sound. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fixitrod Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 Have you done anything like a head mod. I'm thinking it's just the sound of the pipes too, but if you changed the compression or something, you motor may be pre-igniting. Did you rejet for your new pipe?

Banchetta Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 My ptr mids do that....I'd have to say, they ping more than any other pipe I've heard....Sounds like a Harley w/ 2-stroke sound.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ledofthezep Posted January 12, 2004 Report Share Posted January 12, 2004 My PC's ping pretty good when reving down from higher RPMS....hence the 'ring DING DING' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigboybanshee Posted January 13, 2004 Report Share Posted January 13, 2004 I have the Toomey T5's and they ping like crazy...I don't think there is anything wrong with your engine, unless you're feeling a loss in power or performance...Just my thoughts!!!
