owmyeye Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I currently have t5s. I was looking for pipes with a little more oomph. I ride trails and tool around in the street racing cars that think they are fast, but since i live in florida, I don't have any mountains or hills to climb. Any suggestions?

Tim C Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Shears or CPI will give you more topend but you will lose on the bottom which you might not like if trail riding. Porting might be the best for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Burgandy Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I would think the T5s should be good. Probably look into other mods to give it more umph....reeds, shave the flywheel, Some aftermarket tires are often overlooked... just my .02cent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shave the flywheel and bump the timing for more umph. Then, think about porting when it's time to freshen up the top end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noslo98 Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I am running T-5's as well with porting,timing advanced and a trinity stage IV head and it is still fairly easy on the trails and flat out rips on the street/dunes. I am building a 10 mil cub now so the top end will be for sale real soon (now) if your interested.The top end only has the break in and one day of riding on it.

owmyeye Posted November 7, 2006 Author Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 I think i'll see about porting it. I'm not sure if the job has been done yet though. How can you tell? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dajogejr Posted November 7, 2006 Report Share Posted November 7, 2006 Send 'em to a reputable builder, and they will be able to tell you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
