Default Factory Second Alba Pipe Kit

Has anyone got these yet and do they work good. They are alot cheaper then most and I want a Full System. I was just wondering do they produce good power. My Raptor is completely Stock and I want to open it up a little. Will this be easy to hook up and will it fit alright. Thanks alot people

I have the Alba Stage Three system and it open my Raptor up great. Lot's of power, and a ton of torque. The factory second needs minor tweaking which means it will be a tight fit when you bolt it up, but I'm sure you can get it on your quad. You might want to add a K&N filter(pro design or the one that fits the stock air box) and jet's. It will definetly help a lot. I love mine.

The site says, the problem is with the fitment not the power increase. The site says you need to push and pull a little harder to get things to fit and line up properly. As for performance, as long as what they say is true, the performance is as good as most if not all pipes out there. The site doesn't say the jet kit they provide or the pro design K&n filter comes with the pipe as usual. Things you need to get optimal performance.

1 1/2 - 2 years. Before they had their open end cap and before they had their own jet kit. Before they chromed their pipes. I run mine with 18 disks not the 12 they supply.

WOW. I've had mine for 6-7 months. I run the open end cap. I didn't know the old alba pipes had those disks.

Thats all they offered at that time was the disks. You can still get the disks. I can also use the open end cap if I wanted to buy it.

Yeah, the race end cap is pretty sweet looking. It's like a polished chrome. I like mine.
