Default Best set of pipes for Banshee?

Hey guys. i was just wondering what some good pipes are. ive looked at Toomey's, Pro circuits, Fmf, Cpi, Duncan racing Paul turner pipes ad a couple more.

Ive read all the descriptions on all the pipes and they all pretty much say the same thing. "Best pipes on the market" Anyways i just want some opinions from people with experience instead of a company trying to sell their equipment.

I am looking for power in the lower end to midrange pull to top end power.

Had a set of Toomey T-5's. I had no complaints at all. I believe the T-5 are mid range and T-6 top end. Not positive on that. Didn't want to spend the $ for new ones so checked craigslist and ebay for some "Like new" pipes. Feel that I got lucky that the Toomy's were on there.

T5s are a good all around pipe, Cpi are good top end

Had good luck with the FMF SSTs, but for low end the Gnarlies are a better choice. Don't have experience with any of the others.

I've ran t-5s, FMfs,PT mid and PT highs and also Bills pipes. Personally before i turned my main shee into a straight drag quad i preferred the PT high rev pipes or Bills pipes.I ran them through trails and then straight to the track.Good low end and also a hard pull through mid and top end. Keep in mind the pipe depends on porting too...

I agree if drag racing too CPI or Shearer pipes are the way to go.I run a set of Big bore big flange hand coned sheares on my 10 mill banshee.But have also had good results with Power Pro pipes on my stock cylinder drag bike

t-5's or t-4's.. t-4's interfere with the petcock slightly.. otherwise are a great pipe and are just as good as the t-5's

Nice thing about Toomeys is you can get the "hush kit" that puts a secondary silencer between the tips, and it lowers the dB to 89, great for low noise dunes and other riding areas, and it won't hurt the power, they say it even bumps up the low end response a bit.
