Replaced an Ancillotti with a BGM when my cast iron set-up was a 175cca few years ago. Definite improvement, a bit more power, easy to fit and good thing ride.

The downside is how the mild steel used to make them lasts... or not! The Ancillotti was a right state after about 18 months riding particularly the down pipe, BGM not very good either but not as bad. Have a new one to fit which I've had ceramic coated at Camcoat, will see how that goes. Fit the bolt on the underside of the casing which should help the internals steady together longer.

Hope that helps

Your engine will struggle to pull over 6,500 to 7,000 rpm with the Ancilotti, I ran one on a Muggy 186 and a TS1 and it was the same on both

I have 2 Ancilotti down pipes, one for a standard type oval port and one with a TS1 flange and both are stainless :?
