check out the sparks, alot of people say they are really good, I am thinking of getting one myself. what ever you get make sure you got a good air filter set up and re-jet for the pipe.

At the risk of sounding ignorant, what is the sparks? Do you have a full name or a link. Sorry I'm a sledhead and I'm just getting into quads. Thanks

i am in love with my HMF, it added so much, and sounds real nice. my friend had a yoshi, and the HMF definetely added more hp and sound. it is a bit loud tho, fortunetely they sell quiet cores if your in a place u need one. i feel HMF is a top contesten.

All Exhausts will be comparable and, give you a good gain. I'd be more particular about looks and, available options such as Quiet cores for sound sensitive places and, a spark arrestor. Getting a pipe that comes with a spark arrestor can save you as much as $60 dollars for one down the road. My Builder says he sees the best performance gains with the Yoshimura. I think they are ugly and, thier head pipes are dark brown in a few runs though.

I'd say Trinity is the best looking.

i have the yoshi and i like it, dont know if its the best...

I really like the duals by LTE

either yoshi or LTE if I was buying a pipe

I dont believe the headers turn brown on the yoshi's....got bout 20 hours on my headers and they dont look brown to me

Bevelry660R:

Not much point in questions like this as all you will get is everyone saying how great the system they have is.

Search under exhuast or go to www.ctracing.com and read the link on "Raptor pipes" from dirt wheels.

Yeah I figured I would see what everybody had to say. I have been checking out the Pipe kit from CT Racing. Anybody have experiance with this set up? From what I have read it wakes the raptor up very well.

This kit:
Header, Muffler, 16 Discs, Jet Kit w/ Titanium Needles , K&N Pro Flow, Crankcase Breather Filter $647.95

Don't sound to bad. Thanks

I have the CT and I wouldnt trade it for any other. Never lost to another piped raptor when I had a pipe and filter setup, even beat some banshees and built 440ex and z440's with it. I like the ability to change the discs for the noise restrictions at some of the state riding areas.

Sparks, duncan, and lte are all great pipes, but I'd buy another CT again in a heartbeat.

I have ran a PRO CIRCUIT T-4/FMF-Q and now have a LTE dual system and the LTE system is a superior product in every way especially performance.TheLTE has a very unique and throaty sound without being overly loud and it seems to produce its power fairly evenly in the rpm range where as most pipes are either a low end or top end power producer.

Thanks for all the info and suggestions. I'm not 100% positive yet but I might go with the CT setup. Still open to suggestions.

Hey duneittilludie- Any high flow pipe you got after the quiet series you had would seem better, quiet series pipes have more restriction! I had more problems thjat you can imagine trying to tune throught the restrictive Quiet core for mine! They Blow for performance but some areas have to have em.

As of now my Raptor is stock. Our last trip to the Little Sahara in Oklahoma I raced a guy with a Yoshi pipe that was jetted and I beat him every time we race. He said even his wifes stock Raptor was beating him. His brother was there with a Raptor with the LTE duals filter kit and jetted. He let me ride it and I was beating piped and jetted yfzs and Honda 450s. I am a firm believer that LTE duals is the way to go. Just my opinion.....I am hoping to get a set soon..

One of my friends has a CT racing system on his raptor and that thing is faster than any other raptor I've rode with. The CT system goes well with K&N, jetting, and power lid. That is the setup my friend has on his raptor.

captbags-You would be surprised to have seen the performance that i was getting out of that fmf-q.I had a header/pipe/102mm piston and a pro design air filter and i was able to beat a lot of raptors built further than mine.I now have a full blown 690 with all the goodies so that combined with the LTE set up is giving me amazing performance but the pipe is playing a big part in that.

Graydon Proline Full System IMO......Added a ton of power throughout the entire RPM Range. It is a bit loud though....
