flyRTby Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) ill be making my way back to silver lake September 11th. And im really considering buying some pipes before i go.. The only mods i have to the engine = T.O.R.S is removed, and a billet water pump. The bike is stock. The only other mods ill do is either run pods, or a K & N with the lid removed, exhaust and piston and rings as necessary. Ive done a tone of research on here "the pipe explanation thread" and every pipe manufacturer web site... still torn on what to buy. Toomey T6's, FMF SST's, DMC alien or 916, PC's???? there are a few sets on e-bay toomey t-5's and fmf fattys.. this guy is local too.. Toomeys FMF FATS Edited August 10, 2009 by flyRTby Quote
flyRTby Posted August 10, 2009 Author Report Posted August 10, 2009 looking for the best bang for my buck really.. an all around pipe. i know anythings gonna be better than stock.. but id like a nice welll rounded bike. not one thats only top end or only bottom. my riding varies so thats why i'd like to stay versatile as possible. Dunes, Street, Trails. Thanks again.. i know this question is beat'n with a stick everyday. Quote
SAVAGE420 Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 IMO, go with the T5's. They worked great on my unported motor, now they work killer on my dune ported motor. Untill 2 days ago when i sold them :biggrin: You know you will get ported down the road and T5's respond KILLER to porting, cant go wrong with them. Quote
donkeypuncher Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 there really isnt a such thing as an "all around" pipe. you get either mostly bottem end, mostly mid, or mostly top end with pipes. but, as said by savage, i say you go with the t5's. Quote
rubberneck Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 I certainly cant tell you what is best because the only pipes ive run on a stock port motor other than stock was a 2 into 1 and T5's. didn't like the 2 into 1 really. The T5s run really nice. A properly tuned stock bike with T5s and a modded timing plate to get +4 timing will run beautifully. Really fun bike IMHO Quote
dajogejr Posted August 10, 2009 Report Posted August 10, 2009 I say get T6s or T5s, whatever you get the better price on. T6's still work fine with porting, if you have the right guy doing your engine, IF Porting is even on your radar in the near future. Quote
flyRTby Posted August 10, 2009 Author Report Posted August 10, 2009 thanks for the info guys.. ya.. i guess porting is inevitable.. ill talk to my local guy see what he will take for them t5's Quote
