Thinking about the FMF Mega Bomb header....
I currently have the FMF Power Bomb header on my bike and now FMF has come out with the Mega bomb...Yay for progression I guess. The expansion chamber is larger and on a stock setup they claim 3 hp! I was thinking about replacing the Power Bomb but was wondering if anyone else has had a chance to stick the Mega on yet or am I going to be the test vehicle?

I would save the money and get a big bore
How much is it? If it's more than $50 I don't think it'd be worth it. I seriously doubt 3hp on a KLX. Maybe on a bike that's making 80hp to begin with - but 3hp on a KLX is like a quarter of it's total HP... hahaa

The big bore is a given I and will order it next week if time permits. Just wondering if anyone has tried this header.

I put the Mega on a week ago and did notice a nice improvement in the low end. It's not mind blowing but it does spool up better. It a little more like a billy goat now (which is a good thing). It climbs the gnarly singletrack better then it did the week before. I'm almost wishing I did the BB first but I'm thinking I'll like the Mega once I get the BB kit so no worries. I never rode the Power Bomb though so I don't know about the difference. FMF states that the Mega is lo-mid and Power is mid-hi so I enjoyed the Mega. Hope this helps.

correct me if i'm wrong but i believe a 3 hp gain on a 20 hp bike is a significant gain. compared to a bike already makin 80, you wouldnt notice the extra power. but these little slugs would love the extra power
