I think everyone is gonna tell you HMF (most affordable) or if your looking to spend some money a Curtis Sparks (expensive). I'd stay away from DG and FMF, i personally feel that FMF's are better on 2 strokes. But thats just my opinion.:)

ok well on a pipe shoot out ct racing won for making the most power. but white bros e pipe won over all cuz it made almost the same hp and was quieter.

Alright guys and gals, you first have to find out what kind of riding you do.

There are two issues to consider when purchasing your PIPE.

1. Performance (HP)
2. Noise (DB level)
(3. For some, looks)

If you are planning on riding on trails and public property, do not get a loud pipe or shorten your own silence, sound is not everything, or I would personally kick you in the junk. I personally have a Sparks X-6 Shorty, but my quad never sees the trails or woods. I ride in the dunes and on a track only. When the dunes enforce a DB limit, I will comply and buy a S/O for the dunes. There are reasons that the silencers are longer by some manufacturers, they want to have public riding areas.

So please, do not buy a TC pipe because it is loud :mad: and go blazing through the trails with it. Because you will be the one to blame when the riding area gets shut down.

loud. u want loud i have a drag pipe on my quada its 8 inches off the header and once it fell of and i didnt even no cuz it only jumped like a 2dbs when it fell off the header. yep im the loudst quad around. but i only run around on my track i made and on the road.


and a nuther thing to think about is if u want more low end or more top end power.
