View Full Version : Bill Ballance Carbon Fiber Users???
Thinking of getting the full system, just wondering if anyone has had trouble with the can hitting the caliper? How do you like it?

I have one ordered, not in yet though. The can itself is smaller in diameter than many stock exhaust systems. If your stocker doesn't hit, I don't think you should have a problem with the HMF either.

HMF pipes are awesome. You have to consider the reliability issues with carbon fiber, more with woods racing I'd say. When a pro has a pipe that cracks, he goes into the trailer and gets another one. If YOUR carbon fiber can cracks, whether you get hit or a stick or rock flings up, or you bottom so hard your caliper hits it... you're gonna end up wishing you had bought an aluminum. Yes, they look sweet - but is it worth the risk? Is it worth ending your race day early? Carry a back up pipe just in case.
Jenks, McGill, DeRisi,Cook,Brandon Ballance all use aluminun. Probably a reason for it.
