I was wondering what everyone expierences are with the duribility and the quality of hpd and hotseats exhaust and other products. I want to put a new pipe on my 2003 scrambler 500. I think i have decided on the procircuit t-4 system. The selling factor on the pipe to me was the fact that the head pipe is stainless steal and the can is aluminum. I want an exhaust that i know i will never have to worry about rusting. I know the t4 system is more than the hpd or the hotseat but i would gladly pay the extra 50 bucks for stainless. Please help me so that im not dissapointed with the pipe and wish i would of bought something else.





Thanks for the help.

i dont know if the all hotseat are made with the same craftman ship but mine honesty is a pos. the welds arent good and one of the silencer mounts snap off. so i think hpd will be your best bet.

 

HPD no question about that...

i had very good luck with my HPD pipe...

 

The HPD is high quality IMO. The nickel plated head pipe is still really shinny on mine, and the aluminum can looks good. I have heard too many horror stories of Hot Seat exhausts falling apart for me to justify spending my money on one, especially since you can get the HPD for cheaper

 

my buddy runs a hotseats speed kit and has never one problem. thats all i know about him.

 

I know someone withe hsp pipes and other goodies no problems there. All in the draw of the luck, not everything is made to 100% perfection, in every brand there is always a lemon.

 

Durability wise, they've both worked great for me. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

The HPD trail pipe is excellent in performance and durability.
