225GUY Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Which makes more power mid to top with my mods listed? Quote
225GUY Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Posted May 8, 2009 I do a lot of trail riding, but a lot of open areas and dragging on dirt and some long hills.... is the switch from t5's to cpis, like omg wow! or just a little different? Quote
TexasBansheeMan Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 I went from a stock stroke unported T5 bolt on banshee with 17cc domes. to a total built dune/drag port CPI banshee and was like OMFG!! it twas the NASTY!!! Rode it in the woods/trails only!! Do it youll never regret it. Might miss the T5 sound though. Quote

225GUY Posted May 8, 2009 Author Report Posted May 8, 2009 Im already ported and have milled head though Quote
TexasBansheeMan Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Forgot to say I had the T5's on the build b4 i picked up the CPI's. I rode it with both. Our mods are close to the same. You will love it. Front tires get air for days!!! Quote
87sheerips Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 Its a WOW difference, could'nt believe it to be honest!! Went straight up from T5s to CPIs with no additional mods, and it was great Quote
studroes Posted May 8, 2009 Report Posted May 8, 2009 get some shearer inframes... X2! a well ported engine with shearers will outrun any other pipe...can still trail ride with the shearers, not the greatest lowend power but on the topend your engine will rev a grand more than the cpi's so if you're lookin for all out power in dragging thats the best choice Quote
RagunCajun Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 IMO shearers are garbage for trail riding. The power band comes on way too late. CPI's ftw. Quote
studroes Posted May 9, 2009 Report Posted May 9, 2009 for tight trails and woods riding shearers def arent the pipe you want but for wide open riding, dragging, and hillshooting like like 225guy says he does he would love the shearers. they pull alot harder and longer. Quote
Toomey Banshee Posted May 10, 2009 Report Posted May 10, 2009 We have T-5's on our 99 stocker with just basic bolt ons. That bike runs real hard. You can lug it a bit and have good top end as well. T-5's are an awesome pipe. And they sound the best, IMHO. I have CPI's on the other 2 bikes listed in my sig. The black one in my profile (94) runs perfect. Top end out the arse and I can trail ride to with NO problem at all. The 02 we have is a real rev queen. Hard to trail ride. GRR race porting has alot to do with that though. Top end on that machine is through the roof. I noticed you have stock carbs. I would get bigger carbs before the CPI's. Quote
225GUY Posted May 11, 2009 Author Report Posted May 11, 2009 would bigger carbs make more power? Quote
