Is there really that much difference in the pipes from Ritter, which I happen to have, vs HPD vs Hotseat? Or does alot have to do with the clutch kits that go along with them? I have been considering selling my current setup and starting over with HPD's pipe and clutch kit. I have also just considered stepping up the clutch kit with one from HPD. I also am soon to shave the head .020, and do some port work. Anyone have any opinions?

 

I went through the same exact thing on my Sport. All I can say is "do it".

 

If your gonna do the clutch kit and have the money, go w/ the new HPD roller (if you feel knowledgable enough to tune it. If not, it's best that you wait and stick w/ the aggressive kit w/ SS buttons) The significance of the quicker shifting is well worth the $200.

codeman,

Let me know if you decide to sell your RCR pipe. I've got a '00 TB that needs a kick in the butt, I don't want to put a lot of money into because I'm basically saving up for an SP 500.

I I put a uni filter, RCR pipe and silencer, a bigger jet and a bigger clutch spring on my 00 Trail blazer. it gives it a big kick in tha but! it costed around 320$$

 

there is a super deal on ebay for bid now. a full port and head job for 149.95 on your 250 trail blazer.

 

Just was talking with HPD and they said that RCR has just become one of thier distributors. So it looks like you can get HPD pipes and clutch kits from Rick now also.

 

From what I understand, Rick has been selling HPD stuff for quite a while........
