I just heard some interesting news about the Trinity pipe for the Raptor.

As of right now, the first few will be made of mild steel, but they will be gearing up to make it out of Stainless Steel.

Also, the silencer will be CNC cut and instead of a sticker on it, it will have Trinity engraved into it along with a flame design.

The most interesting part though, is this: Their pipe will be a dual type design. What I mean is that they will have two individual pipes running from the head to the silencer.

He (the man on the phone) claimed that they have only released details on their pipe within the last 2 weeks because they have been testing their pipe against the others to improve upon everything already out there. He claims that their power comes on earlier, goes higher, and last longer. Those are some nice sounding claims if they'll hold up. Current price for the mild steel pipe is $420.

Also, he mentioned that with the cam/piston/valve kit, the 60 hp is being made at around 7,750 RPM or that is what I got of of a comment he made comparing a 60 hp Raptor to a 60 hp Banshee which makes its power at more than 9,000 rpm.

Just for trivias sake, he said the piston for the 680 is basically the same design as found in some Porsches.
