i have a 96' Polaris XLT and am thinking of putting on triple pipes (exhaust)?

Question

Can somebody tell me the advantages and disadvantages of this kind of setup--ie. HP---I heard that it is much harder on your engine and could result in finding weakest link is this true--Thanks guys and gals

Answer 1

Well, I don't know a whole lot about engines, but I have worked on my mortorcycle a bit and here's what I learned. By changing the amount of force behind pushing the exhaust out of the pipes, you also change the amount of back pressure inside the engine causing a change in performance, usually a negative one, especially if you only change one side of the equation. If you triple pipe, you will also need to change the settings on the fuel injectors/jets to keep your HP.
