I just ordered the FMF Ti-4SL, PowerBomb Header, and K&N with Outerwears. I will have to run both the spark arrestor and quietcore, so I am not going to get the pipes max potential. I already have the HRC kit. I will do a post after I try it out!

The Factory 4 is a little lighter, but I didn't figure it was worth the extra $150.

i researched this subject for about a month before deciding on the lrd . made several phone calls and alot of surfing. in the end it was between three. curtis sparks, lrd and fmf factory 4. there are several other really good pipes but most only produce power in a certain range of power.top end or bottom end. these three pipes pull all the way through. the fmf dropped a little in the bottom end but held a little more in the top.the hmf has bang for the buck but its a fairly new co. to me . ill go with the champion building status of a well known maker. both curtis sparks and lehman (lrd) have titles under their belts.
duncan and ct also rank up there but were a little pricey for only on or two more horse.

I'd wait to see stats on sparks and CT personally. They both have top ranking on many other quads.

This shootout is missing out on alot of other good pipes. The only one of that group i would buy would be HMF. Wait for a shootout thats for the 4wheeler and has HMF, Sparks, TC, LRD, ESR, Trinity...

Got my stuff today! That FMF Factory 4 SL muffler is a work of art!!! Got the anodized one. The finish is a fade from blue in the back, to purple in the front. Be a few days before I can get the jetting done.
