Hey all, Ive had my T4 for a short while, and Ive been happy with it. A friend at work has a 01 400EX with a HMF slip-on. He's only 165 lbs. So hes giving up around 60 lbs to me, but his quad blows mine away. When I ride his, it feels more powerful, and way louder too. He said his is geared down too. Maybe 1 tooth or 2. But I barely have top speed over him. What do you guys feel, is a great overall trail riding pipe, to say the only time Im full throttle is hillclimbs, and roads. Usaully low-mid range for me. Should I just swap sprockets first? Any thoughts are welcomed. Max
