My review: CPI vs. Sniper inframe

Recommended Posts

Thanks to banshee332 for letting me borrow his pipes for a seat of the pants review.

 

No dyno, nothing fancy. Just me ripping on my MX track.

 

What can I say? The pipes KICK ASS.

 

They explode into the power band. The CPI's are no slouch by any means but the snipers felt to be stronger everywhere in the powerband AND rev higher. I almost over shot a couple corners because I wasn't used to them lol...

 

I made them fit my center mount setup without much issue. For a stock frame the fitment is great. The o ring setup throughout the stinger is badass.

 

Sorry 332, I think I might send you back my CPI's instead lol :)

 

These weren't "supposed" to work with my 350.... Hell with that they tear shit up and sound EVIL!!

 

Motor setup:

 

Stock stroke 350.

.050" over

35PWK 160 main 52 pilot I think lol

180 cranking PSI

Dune port by RB racing

Trinity head with 19cc domes

+4 timing

15/41 gearing

Sunoco 110 Purple

 

Enjoy..

Thanks Jd for your great review. You can run then for a little but I will need them back lol. I been trying to tell everyone for a year or so that these things are the shit, not only do they perform but the fitment and quality are top notch.

once you get them back from jd, send them to me!!! haha

I herd from a private source that shearer>snipers>cpi. Im pretty sure this dyno results and not real life testing. Not trying to be the debbie downer and im sure im going to offend someone but id really like to see some dyno results.

 

How come pipe manufacturs dont test and advertise there product over the competition? If it were my pipe and business this would be my selling point.

 

What cpi was tested? Small bore?

I don't know a whole lot about snipers are they a top end pipe? They remind me of a shearer mixed with a rocket pipe.

 

Dont take my post as negitive, i like to be critical and get the truth

I'm sorry yes they were small bore unstamped CPI. Let's not get into a pissing match here with the dyno jibber jabber. This is just a non-biased review for which I had great "seat of the pants" results. And for me ripping dunes and trails, that's all that matters.

 

Ya I'm thinking about buying a set but maybe next year. The CPI work "fine" for me so it's hard to justify. They are better looking, sounding, and feel stronger so ya.... maybe next year.
