shear top end i would say trx 11, but the paul turner high rev would work better for smaller bores IMO.

cool! thanks man, i have a fmf fatty right now but that came with the bike and the cylinder has been ported for drag and was just curious if there was a better pipe than that. yeah the cylinder is only bored to .060

I love my trx-5...great mid and top end for my setup. You might take a look at ESR's new trx-9 pipe too

right on guys! i appreciate all the insight. i was also thinking of CT Racing power valve pipe. what do you think? have any of you guys ran one of these pipes or know of anyone that has? Yeah this my first 2 stroke so now im learning all the differences that are involved compared to when i was building a 4 stroke. Really fun process thats for sure a whole new learning curve ya know!

I've got the TRX-9 and I have to say that I love it. I believe it'll hold just about all you can throw at it. When the mid-range comes on.........man what a rush, and there's no end to the top-end.
