cam2 Posted January 16, 2004 Report Share Posted January 16, 2004 when i was looking at getting an exhaust system for my 03 i was fond of the DMC 916 system but i settled on the FMF SST system because the consensus was that the SST's were a great all around system. i keep thinking that i would like to try the DMC's and compare them to my SST's so i keep looking on ebay and i can't seem to find a set. i was wondering if the DMC's are so good that everyone wants to keep them or are they that bad and they never caught on with banshee riders. i like the looks and sound of the 916's but i'm more concerned with performance and i was wondering if they would out perform the SST's as a mid to top pipe. thanks. chuck.

bignasty1 Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 i havent rode the sst's but i have rode the 916s and they are the baddest sounding pipe in my opinion. and as for performance i would take them over a set of toomey's or my old fmf's any day of the week. i loved them they were great pipes if you can find them give them a shot i think they are worth it.

Just for fun Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 I saw a pair over the summer and they sounded almost identical to the T-5s. I just dont like the oval look to the silencers, but from all I have read they seem to perform great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FORMULASPEED Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 I got rid of my fmf fattys. And bought the DMC 916 exhaust and I like them alot and so does my banshee . They out perform my fattys IMHO. Here is a DIRT WHEELS archive link for DMC DIRT WHEELS DMC web site Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spoin39 Posted January 17, 2004 Report Share Posted January 17, 2004 If you already have the SST's I wouldn't bother with buying a set of the DMC's. I'm not knocking them but the SST is a good pipe and I doubt you would notice a difference worth the while and money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cam2 Posted January 18, 2004 Author Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 i like the SST's as far as an all around pipe is concerned. i like the mid range pull but i wish that they reved out on top a little more. for my type of riding i need and enjoy a mid to top pipe. also i keep wondering if i'll be better off with the DMC's or possibly another pipe after i get some port work done, most likely a mx style port job. chuck.

Ultimateduner Posted January 18, 2004 Report Share Posted January 18, 2004 MY cousin has the dmc pipe it runs pretty good but not as good as a sst, I raced my cousin with his dmc pipes and we're equal. ( i have old school fmfs) so I would say keep the ssts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
