Received my Arrow pipe today, and will post pics later. The build quality/welds is pretty shoddy compared to the Burial.

I looked at the windjammer, but the dollar to yen ratio was too ridiculous for me to buy it now.

The arrow was expensive too in price, but it was the shipping that made a significant portion of the cost ($500 shipped).

Simply amazing!

WOW, what camera are you suing to achieve such great quality photos?

I'm curious, where did you source the Stage 6 intake manifold & Mikuni TM24 carburetor?

Any links to some parts sites?

Thanks a ton for sharing!

Greetings:

The TM-24 carb is pretty popular and available in many places. TreatLand carries it but a bit pricey. Be aware that the Mikuni spigot is 2mm smaller than the OKO/Keihin, so it's not a perfect fit on the OKO CT manifold. You can Google Stage6 for manifold sources, but they're pricey as a rule. The Mikuni is a good carb, but I'm not convinced it's any better than those from OKO and Keihin.

I purchased the tm24 from bowlsla.com and the intake manifold from spmotostore.com.

The camera lens is a 24-70mm on a Canon 5D MkII body.

You might have to run bigger jets with that pipe.
Nothing like getting stroked!
