Thumbs up Review of joel's free flow for pulsar 220

HI GUYS,

WANTED TO SHARE THE EXPERIENCE OF GETTING A JOELS FREE FLOW EXHAUST INSTALLED ON MY BIKE. so here it goes.

i live in kolkata in a g2g i saw anuraag's (motormania) pulsar 220 fitted with joels exhaust it was the older version. just loved the sound. i decided i will get one for my bike as well.
so collected the funds and pm joel for price and delivery and stuffs.
after transferring the funds and around one month of wait i got the free flow.

it looks beautiful. shiny chrome and its shorter in size. you will either love it or hate the way it looks because of its size. i loved it.

after getting the free flow installed the sound was awesome. its bassy and loud. joel didnt provide me the decibel killer. i used to nag him to provide it to me but after getting used to the sound of the ffe i thought even if i get the db killer perhaps i will never use it.

the power delivery is awesum. the mid range and the low range has increased a lot. the acceleration has improved a lot. i can hit three digits very fast.

now there are few feedbacks also for joel if he comes accross my thread.
i wish there was a drain hole in the free flow. because of the angle water can seep through very easily.
there could have been a few design choice as many people may not like the short structure of the ffe. so if joel comes out with a longer version he may have a lot of takers.
the ffe is very prone to rusting i hope joel could do something about it. may be a different alloy or something.

i rode my bike wth joels ffe for more than 1000km and only after that i am doing this review. its a fantastic product considering the price it comes for. but it can even be better and also the best.

overall if u want a louder exhaust with better acceleration without screwing up the engine or burning a hole in your pocket i think this is the best option. so this is highly recommended for all the pulsar 220 owners

thanks for the review pranjal.was waiting for someone to write over it.i too think that the exhaust should be a bit long but that will increase the weight & about rusting,joel should do something about this asap.let's see what he can do about this..

A wrongly deisgned exhaust will mess AFR and cause a lot of efficiency problems which will inturn kill the reliability of a few parts. Like the exhaust valve, valve seat etc.
A tuned exhaust, which in this case is my freeflow, is meant to work with the cam design, cylinder head design and the engine capacity. Also based on other performance analysis and racing experience.
