Thunderbird extractors are good, doesn't have the "twin outlet" though, instead it has a hotdog muffler with single outlet. And yes you will need to "jet" up your carbie, usually one jet size, otherwise you will burn exhaust valves.

Try one of your local guys, eg VolksPower: a set of bugpack extractors should set you back less than a stocker... You prolly won't need to re-jet with a stock 34 and filter as they're pretty rich to start.

If you do move west, cruise down South Tce in Freo and pay Kurt a visit...
