A DMC will rev more then the BG, but the BG is the king of low end and mid grunt. There are much better choices then WB.

Just from doing the math, the top speed should be about 66-67 mph (about 8 percent less than with the 13 tooth). If the pipe lets you rev higher than stock, then the top speed would be higher of course. I have this exact setup on my Raptor, but haven't clocked the top speed. I ride at very high altitude anyway, which would change the results...

Good luck,
Lorrin

I have a big gun slip on and i clocked myself at 72.9 mph on my gps. I like the way my gears are stock, 1st gear is a little fast for mud but for anything else its great!

My buddy has the E-series pipe on his with twin air air filter, 155-160 jets and modified air box. this setup goes 78-79 MPH on Radar with stock 13-40 tooth sprockets, if you do the math thats 72-73 with the 12 tooth. The E-series is big on low end power. I have the same setup except with the G-YTR pipe and it goes 81-82 MPH. but it doesn't have the low end grunt of the E-series.

mudmunster,

He probably has the 6 1" uni vents in the airbox lid. This seams to be a very popular option on the raptor.

Mudmunster,
He has the flaps cut out of the snorkel, the intake area in the lid just after the snorkel cut out and three 2 inch holes cut in the lid. WB. sells inserts for the two inch holes. He also has 12 disks in the pipe now I think and is going to try 14.
