yeah, i am gonna have to agree with duck on this one. i have cpi's, but if i was gonna do it over again, i would probably get the toomeys. that way i could wear shorts when i ride. it gets friggin hot down here.

now if all you do is drag race (like me), then the cpi's are the way to go. but then again, the toomey t5's do that well also.....

If you want pipes for low/mid power then stay away from Toomeys or CPIs for that matter they both are mid/top pipes and are not what you are looking for at all...Buy yourself some PTR low/mid or some FMF Gnarlys you will be happy with them, those telling you to buy Toomeys are not going with what you are asking here but rather with what they like themselves and in this case it doesnt match at all.Toomeys,CPIs and all other top end pipes have very weak low/mid power in fact it is pretty much non existent my guess is you want some kind of woods pipes so stay away from the high reving light switch powerband type of pipes.

Imback is correct, toomeys and cpi's are mostly topend pipes. Making the power band narrower, the PTR mid-range pipes are awesome plus they look trick!! The toomeyT6'S are "supposed" to have more midrange power than the previous toomeys. They will not hold a light to the low-end of the PTR mids, fatty's, or gnarly's(rebadged fatty's). If you wan't a strong all-around pipe I suggest the pro-circuits or the PTR'S.
