Thanks, but as always, it depends on who you talk to. I was trying to get a sense of what people are running with.

 

I am running the ALBA action exhaust and I really like it. I just went with it because i live nearby and i wanted an ALBA graphics kit so now my bike is all ALBA. But all the guys on this forum that are veteran riders seem to all agree the SPARKS pipe is the best. I have never seen somebody post a bad comment about it.....maybe I will upgrade to sparks one day if I have extra money.............[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

You will find literally thousands of posts on this subject and hundreds of topics that cover just about every availible raptor pipe known to man. Search and look through these old threads then get an idea of what you want, and maybe narrow it down to a few models. Its going to depend on your riding type, style, and future plans for the bike among other things, so we will need more information from you anyway.

Since the DW article many of those pipes have been discontinued or considerably changed and there are many that have been released since then. The db measurements of your local law enforcement may be conducted differently than those of DW. Some test directly at the pipe outlet, others a distance away. Some test at only one throttle position, others check many.

 

just telling you the best pipe I have experienced. Ive only owned two different brands but raced against several, and I am yet to be beat by another piped raptor. Never raced a CT though. Buy a Sparks and youll never regret it, guaranteed. All the "experienced" guys on here know that the sparks pipe is by far superior (other than the Barker pipe)

My girlfriend did beat me with a white bros slip on, but she weighs 105 lbs and I weigh 225 [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-disgusted.gif[/img][img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-blush.gif[/img]

 

Thanks for all the advice.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]

 

hey man im running the white brothers e series exhaust right now and i love it... i couldnt really tell you which system would torque up ur raptor THE MOST but the e series definitely gives you a hell of a boost at the touch of that throttle... it also has a nice deep sound to it... ive heard many pipes and the e series sounds best to me... and like the guy said earlier, you can modify the loudness by adding or removing discs in the pipe... i have all of mine removed, loud and proud!... well i just wanted to throw in my 2 cents and let you know that you wouldnt be going wrong with the white brothers e series exhaust

 

running the ct pipe currently, and i have never had one complaint.

 

i would also throw in trinitys pipe they are right at the top on hp gain and are a good solid built pipe

 

Thanks for the info.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
