Everyone has their own recommendations and ther are a ton of pipes that do equally as well, so there really isn't a "best" pipe out there. I recommend the FMF "Fatty" pipe with the "Turbine core II" silencer. It has a spark arrestor and really isn't that much louder than stock. As far as the tires, it's the same thing, lots to choose from, but like the pipe, I always recommend what has worked for years rather than what the current fad is. So yes, I'm talking 20" Holeshots.

I'm not trying to talk you into buying one as if I was selling it to you. I'm sorry if I sounded too much like a salesman, just in my blood I guess. As I said earlier alot of pipes are just "equal" in performance and I select the FMF because no other company that I know of has as much experience in the building of pipes as they do. FMF, Dycorp,DG and maybe a handful of others were the first to produce pipes for the Blasters to begin with. I don't think Dycorp has been around for years, and DG doesn't make a pipe for any two stroke worth even mentioning, not only that, but they bow out to Dirtwheels and others when they do their pipe shootouts. DG builds a good four stroke pipe, but it makes you wonder who's in charge of their R&D concerning the two strokes.

Not including those guys, dozens of different guys have made pipes for the Blaster, but NONE of them is as popular or has been as successful for the long term as the "Fatty" by FMF, so that fact relies heavily upon me as a viable canidate. Boy I'm in salesman mode again aren't I. Sorry. KNOWSALOT.

Ok Point Taken. I haven't done any research yet but one thing is for sure fmf Fatties will be included in my research.
Thank you very much, Greg T.
