Raptor 700 pipe shoot out !!!!!!!!!

What with my HMF full system on order..... I can only hope it puts a smile on my face once installed [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img] Surely there can't be that much difference between all pipes that you are going to notice it while riding??? Each to their owen i guess.

I'm thinking I want to get a pipe / air filter and computer box for it. . . what's the best combo?

We ride in the sand and noise hasn't been an issue. It may become an issue but, that's probably a while off. Mostly want to get her a little more power for the hills.

I can't believe I'm never going to have to jet that thing again. What a relief!

This bike will stay stock except for the air filter / pipe and programmer. Not putting a piston or cam in this.

Looking for reliable / looks & performance. I don't mind spending a few more bucks for the right set-up.

................like what was already said, all the single exhausts are pretty dang close to eachother. I would base it more of of what you like than anything. I would howver strongly erge you to go with the PCIII controller and the prodesign intake!

Why does everyone constantly focus on peak HP #'s? The duration in which the bike maintains peak HP is more important. Even more important than that are the torque #'s. Why is so much emphasis placed on how many horse your bike is pushing? I would be more interested in the torque #'s on these pipes.
Have a nice day

I can't believe these mags stay in business with such inaccurate dyno shootouts [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/img].....and I must question people reading these lop-sided shootouts and actually going out and purchasing this misrepresented product. While I am ranting, the CT pipe and the Team Alba pipes have got to be the hands down most butt ugly pipes in my humble opinion [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img].

So what youre saying is, is that if you took one of the pipes that was just barely behind the ct and took the lid off, it would make more power? That the ct pipe is not the best pipe for the raptor 660? If not, then what is?

Raptor 700 pipe shoot out !!!!!!!!!

just for the RECORD the CT dyno charts are accurate to within 1-2hp. I've had my bike on 3 different dynoes, and what CT's dynoes claim, and the other dynoes ive personally been on, including KENZ, KMS, and FSWS their dyno is pretty accuarate. But just cause it makes the most HP doesnt mean it will eb the fastest, you ahve to look at the curve, and see where the power is being laid down at.
