Well then we are talking about a pipe that will yield 20hp over the stock pipe... And people were claiming CT was full of it at 14.
I'd just like to see some numbers and real proof before I plunk down 750 or so and take a big loss on my existing pipe.

all I KNOW is it puts out 4-6 hp than a DRAG pipe is quieter, and the Drag pipes will put our spakrs and CT pipes to shame on the dyno... wait for the dyno's i'm going to go fast now...[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I meant I was taking a big monetary loss on my CT pipe as I wont be able to sell it for anything close to what it cost me. All in all the upgrade would end up costing me about a grand. So before I plunk down enough for a set of FCR's on a pair of pipes I want some real numbers and proof. Just let me know where/when the data can be had and I'll help myself.

The new Tim Barker Dual's work really well on a built Raptor. I'll definetly be sporting them in the spring.
But don't let anyone tell you the LTE duals aren't a good pipe. They are a very good set up with good power. But so aren't the Alba and Sparks(which cost less then the LTE).

sounds good... you'll see videos of me racing before dyno numbers from myself... I have dyno charts from other people but I will not disclose those... I'll leave it to the owners[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] or you can take my word... Tim will gladly show you as well.

I have seen pic's of the test pipes....the newer set of the pipes...and some dyno chart's.
Basically the dyno chart's mean nothing to me, but when two differnt builders, and several differnt "test riders" tell you about the seat of the pants difference....that is good enough for me.
I just have to wait for my new builder(Rapfam Racing) to give me a full update on how good they perform and then I'll have my set on the way.
Look's like the Raptor will be getting faster and faster this winter.

I am going to post some video either this spring or late this winter to show the top end acceleration that i get with my LTE pipes on my 690 when drag racing because as i said earlier the come from behind wins that i get with this set up is pretty impressive.When i take video with my digital video camera i will be seeking some advice on how to put them on here because i am not well schooled on how to transfer the video from my camera to the forum but i think that i can get some help from those that are more computer literate than myself. This is a fun discussion because of all the varied opinions that we are getting but i have to say that a pipe to pipe comparison means nothing unless they are ran on the same machine under the same conditions but it is interesting to speculate.The fastest raptor that we have around here(two quad lengths faster than mine in 300 feet)has the sparks and quite a few of the very fast ones have the yoshimura which seems to build good power at all rpm levels.I have recently seen some pretty impressive results with a couple of quads running the (U-4 fuel) has any one tried this and if so what did you think.
