Hey Bad660r...how do you like that MBRP on that Craycraft motor????
I actually run homemade dual drag pipes now. I wouldn't go back to an in frame pipe at this point. However I still have the MBRP, and will put it on my other Raptor soon enough. It is great quality. Fit, and finish is awesome. The CT Racing pipe I had before, and is on my other bike has been repaired numerous times because of the poor build quality.

I had my Carillo rod balanced with the piston and crank. After the crank was repaired from the damage the stock rod did to it when it let go. I would suggest to anyone that wants to build up a Raptor and run the **** out of it upgrade the rod along the way for insurance if nothing else. I got lucky that most everything was salvagable...others have not been.

That's the gearing I was running prior to the 22" tires, and I haven't tried anything else yet. It's been doing pretty good with this setup. If I get to a track I plan on trying different gearing.
