i would go with the pro circuit but its loud, or if you could find a good used white bros e series because its tunable with plates and you can change loudness, i use it and there is a big difference.

I would look more into the HMF. There is a reason why everyone and there brother has one! Also Big Gun with a quiet core isnt too loud. Same with LRD and it seems like the motoworks pipes are pretty good.

They will all be about the same noise level with quiet cores.

Man, everyone likes to hate on the White Bros. I've never had a problem with mine.

Also, I've heard a lot of good things about the Lexx MXe slip-on (http://www.rockymountainatv.com/productDetail.do?&navType=type&webTypeId=57&navTitle=Exhaust&webCatId=18&prodFamilyId=19536#vehicleSelect). It's tunable so you can change from a race exhaust (46mm Race Tip) to a forest friendly silencer (Quiet Core Insert) with just three bolts. The Motoworks SR4 slip-on (http://www.rockymountainatv.com/productDetail.do?&navType=type&webTypeId=57&navTitle=Exhaust&webCatId=18&prodFamilyId=17691#vehicleSelect) is pretty nice, too. I just think the Lexx is a steal at $200.

The LEXX is a nice looking exhaust and seems hard to beat with the price. I bought a Motoworks pipe and I like it a lot. I bought it to replace my full AC pipe and am very pleased with the switch. It seems to make similar power to my full AC with the same jet settings. After I bought the Motoworks I found a guy on Ebay selling a new Lexx pipe for $129 and nobody bought it. I almost bought it just for the heck of it. I still have the guy in my watch list if you are interested in that pipe-he may still have it for sale.

well lets just say that who ever bought mine.. i feel bad for them when they go to repack it. oh the shock on there face when they get the can off. :p

I like my t-4 alot. it is not overly loud and makes good power throughout the whole powerband. steve

11-03-2009, 03:22 PM
i agree.i love my t4. not very loud. makes nice power for a slip on.

the procircuit pipe is a nice pipe and its better than the stock pipe all across the rpm range i have one for sell if ur intrested because with the big bore kit that i have i need a bigger header. so i will be buying a sparks exhaust in the near future

i read everything when im on duty.. stupid RA'ing haha. the quality of two brothers pipes are second to none. mine had a magnesium tip though.. i wish i had two m7's to make duals out of. it was pretty loud, but i guess the different quiet cores make a huge difference. i sold it to my brother's friend and from what i hear, he likes it.
