jaysea1 Posted May 18, 2004 Report Posted May 18, 2004 Banchetta, which pipe would you recommend for( 50% desert/wash riding )50% dune riding? I want a pipe that will grow good to mods. I can't FREAKI'N decide Thanks Quote
Banchetta Posted May 19, 2004 Report Posted May 19, 2004 Pt high revs....they build a pipe that puts power to the ground and not just the most hp....sometimes its not how much you have, but where its at.......I thought my Pt mids would hold me back, but when I went to Dumont, I was impressed w/ them. STill wouldn't give them up......Pt designs a great pipe w/ lots of torque where the banshee needs it the most....I've tried a lot of pipes and have to give them credit...If your not dragging, then go for them...

I guess i will have that solved with a .030 milled head, the +4 advance and the lightened flywheel... coming soon!!! Edited May 19, 2004 by SouthernBanshee Quote
Banchetta Posted May 23, 2004 Report Posted May 23, 2004 Lack of power where??? bottom end or top?? Quote
Banchetta Posted May 24, 2004 Report Posted May 24, 2004 shaving the head, timing at +4, and lightened flywheel will help that a lot, along w/ jetting....Jetting is mostly the cause of this, but your on the right track. If the high rev isn't enough, then get some mids...They pull hard as hell from 0 throttle all the way up.... Quote
jaysea1 Posted May 26, 2004 Author Report Posted May 26, 2004 banchetta...how did your PT mids do in the dunes? Quote
bigwill Posted May 26, 2004 Report Posted May 26, 2004 Amen on the PT-mids-great pipe that works where you need it-looking to get PT-hi rev for my stroker motor Quote
Banchetta Posted May 27, 2004 Report Posted May 27, 2004 The mids worked great at the dunes. Thought I'd get my ass kicked, but they held thier own, I wish I had the other intakes mods to go w/ the stroker though. Would have represented the East coast pretty well... So far, these have been the best pipes I've owned for my type of riding. I don't go for the "light switch" powerband, nor do I strictly race.....These pipes really put the power to the ground w/ minimal tire spin and hard pull w/ a smooth powerband....Even though I've set my shee up for technical hill climbs and trails, there is only a couple of shees that'll take it w/ my new setup, but I want a rematch w/ the new intake mods...... Don't let that "midrange" title fool you. You get less revs, but more torque... Quote
jaysea1 Posted May 27, 2004 Author Report Posted May 27, 2004 Banchetta, thanks for the reply. Where can I get the best price for PT's...anywhere other than Duncan? Or Ebay? I am seriously considering the mids now. I have found a place where Fatty's complete with powercore2's $394. I also can get TR6's for $400...but the guy that had them said they have no lowend, and are over priced. He drags though. Midrange pipes might be a better fit for me...so I'm not limited. Quote

As far as I know, Duncan and a couple of other places only sell Pt's..Duncan sells them for $525 (last I knew) and Team Alba sells them for $499....Dont' buy anything from Golden West.....They still owe me $800........

dirttrack25 Posted May 28, 2004 Report Posted May 28, 2004 www.whiteknuckleracing.com sells just the pipes for 325... Quote
