Well, if you must choose from one of those two I'd say the Sparks is much better than the CT. The quality and reliability of the Sparks pipe seems to be alot better. Either way you choose, both those pipes are very overrated and pretty much the same. The Yoshimura, FMF, and White brothers pipes are also excellent choices that are just as good, if not better than Sparks and CT. You'll be happy with any pipe you buy, your YFZ will rip!

If you visit ct's website they have a link to dirtwheels raptor pipe shootout. Although sparks was'nt in it there were quite a few big pipe names involved,including the yoshi, needless to say the ct pipe came out on top for power, and that is why I ordered it. I wish I could tell you more but I have'nt got the pipe yet.

Yeh your right vinny but the reason they choose the yoshimura was noise and the ct being 2 pounds heavier, both a non issue to me. I also ordered the ct because I was told it responds well to motor mods, not to say the yoshi doesn't, but for my money it is the ct. that is just my opinion.

i have the ct pipe and i absolutley love it, and i've had the sparks pipe before the ct. i will defent the ct pipe and the company and the accuracy of their dyno charts any day. the dyno charts that ct posts are accurate to within 1hp. dont care what anyone else says about them, my pipe has proved itslf on 3 different dynoes and on the hill thousands of times. only other pipe i would pick of my ct is the barker duals. as far as you looking for a pipe for the 450... is pulsecharger is a excellent pipe, and a lot of my friend swear by the dr.d they love it, but my friend also love the gyt-r and sparks. only advice on the 450 i can give you is the ct pipe is going to be a more top end pipe and you wont like it as much as the sparks pipe if your going to be doing mx, and trails. ct loves to rev high, sparks makes great power all over the place.
