i mainly trail ride, i have a raptor, ported and polished, 11-1 piston, race cam. full dmc pipe. i was wonder if i should go down to a 13 tooth sprocket in the front, and would this make me loose alot of top end

If your main issue is 1st gear being a little too tall for you in the trails, then YES, I would definately drop a tooth size in the front!

i was thinken if i droped a tooth, it would give me more low end and mid power... ?????... how much difference is there, and is it worth it???

yea it will give you more low end. off-the-line acceleration.

what i did on my raptor is went up 4 on the back and it was perfect for me and i do alot of trail riding also take it for what its worth but one tooth on the fr is equal to six on the back

That is correct. 6 on the back is like 2 in the front!;)
