txblueshee Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Every model of toomey pipes are available in the black "unpainted" option. Your silencers will be chrome though . The toomeys would be great for street riding at high rpm's....you could prolly use the stock silencers just gut them. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holyman Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 If you're concerned about the chrome tipping the cops off then paint whatever pipes you feel like running. If you're doing street riding, you could get away with a good top end pipe like the Toomey. The advantage with them too is you can get the Hush Kit if sound level is a concern and still stick with the whole Toomey package. They are a great pipe and if they came in stainless, I'd go back to them from the Trinity's I have now. The problem with almost any pipe I've seen except the few stainless pipes out there is that they all wind up looking crappy and rusty after a while anyway and could use a coat of paint or some of that ceramic coating. In my opinion, you're just as well off getting a set of pipes that are used and need a paint job and just paint 'em. If you want the paint off, paint stripper will do the job fast. If you want a stock looking aftermarket pipe, I'd go with the Paul Turner pipes {never run them but alot of people are very happy with them} or a 2:1 pipe because if it only comes out one side you're 50% less likely to have the pipes ever even seen a few bucks on a couple cans of Barbeque Black paint and you're ready to ride. Touch ups are easy too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txblueshee Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 www.toomey.com..... The best place to get them from is www.rockymountainatv.com I would go w/ the t5's if your gonna get it ported later down the road(porting isn't detecable, even by the naked eye ). The t6's just for all-around riding. Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tats4life Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 If you run hi rev's take a look at Paul Turner Racing hi-rev pipes in the factory finish not chrome. I'm sure alot of people on here don't like'em, I've never really rode them hard just drag racing only. Check out www.duncanracing.com.

Banchetta Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 You can get PT, Trinity, Toomey, and I'm sure a few others w/ either black or no finish and just get them powder coated for $75 bucks....make sure you get the 1200degree powdercoat and not the 400degree...the 400 degree temp will peel by the cylinders...

bigboybanshee Posted November 21, 2003 Report Share Posted November 21, 2003 I would say go with some PT's. They look similar to stock and I have heard some pretty nice things about them. And, of course, you could just paint/powdercoat them black to hide the bling factor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
