Do you think it would be the best pipe?

I have a Ct pipe and I have wonderful bottom end and awesome mid range. The top end is decent. Me personally I want a little more top end for hill shooting. I believe I do have an extra Ct pipe laying around.

your prolly going to need a big bore pipe for a 370. Try the esr trx 5.

I have no experience with the Paul Turner but had a CT midrange on my CT 350. It was a great pipe with power all around but I had to switch to the Trx5 centermount due to cooling issues and noticed very similar powerband but slightly more top end.

Thank you for your responses.
I do not want to put the ESR.
I want to keep my air box.
The question is: between the CT and which Paul Turner is the best?

if you decide to go the ct rought I have a mid range and a pv pipe I would sell them both for $240 shipped then you could see what works best with your riding style and port work. I do not have the silencers though.

I have a CT racing 350 pv motor and when I bought it, it came with a ct midrange pipe. It had good power and came on smooth, but I was not happy with the chrome that was flaking off, CT gave me a full refund on the pipe. I am now running the Paul Tunner Eliminator. I was very impressed with quality and fit, as far as power I could not really fill any difference.

It really depends on the porting. I had a pt eliminator on my origanal cylinder that was ported for more top end. It was great. Put it on my 310p/v That Neil ported for low end and it was horrible. I thought my old cylinder would beat it. Now I got the ct on the p/v and its a whole new animal. Would easily beat my old setup. Both pipes are good pipes, just made for different porting imo

I've seen some people get into a ridiculous train of logic, they think that a high-end port job and a low-end pipe will give them the best of both worlds. The actual result ends up being the WORST of both worlds, it just end up running like crap on the bottom and the top.

Your best results are going to come from matching your components. Your pipe should compliment the type of porting you have on your cylinder.

I've never run the CT midrange, but the Eliminator pipe is designed as a mid-top. You should pick whichever pipe matches your porting the best.

Exactly. I guess I kinda worded that funny, sounds like I ment 2 different machines. I bought the p/v to replace my stock cylinder cause the sleeve cracked. With a low mid port probably the most pipe your gonna get away with and still run good is a esr 5. The pt eliminator is a tt pipe, loads of top and little bottom. Likes ex durations in the 190's, the ct is a low end to mid pipe that likes durations from high 170's to low 180's
