the t5s wont have as much top end as cpi, shearers or rockets. if you do more drag racing then switch pipes and get more out of your motor. if you plan on trail riding more keep the t5s. the t5s are a good all around pipe that make good power everywhere. any of the above pipes will more than likely result in the loss of some bottom end. if you dont care then get one of the above and gain some more power on top.

Trail riding and dragging 300', not really. Dragging 1/4 mile, then yea....but drag pipes are very violent coming into the powerband and make trail riding not fun and hard on the clutch and tires..very little gain for the very little dragging that you do compared to riding.....Rider can make more difference. Get really good at the lauches and no matter what others have for setups, if they suck, you'll beat them. Concentrate on setup, suspension is very important. I was untouched for years dragging everyone in 500' on hardpack, even 370R hondas...I'd take them out of the hole by 5 quads and even if they had more hp, we crossed the line before they caught up..I had PTR midrange pipes w/ 165psi. THATS IT!!.
