What pipe are you running on your raptor and why you like it.
I'm currently running a Graydon Proline full system .
Great power everywhere, hard pulling and revs for ever

PatsRaptor,

I am running the stock pipe. Ride to many wood's trails. You can only go so fast before you would slam into a tree and the added power would do myself no good so the stocker is fine.

Cory,

Not really I went through the modification stage in the seventies and early eighties.

The added power really does someone like myself no good. I would rather buy more General electric, Pfizer, Wrigley, etc, etc, stock.

When purchasing a pipe you want a return on investment. I would get no return on the monies invested. Now when I put my money to work in the stock market given time I will get a return on investment.

PS, Forget all this if I go to the trailer park because I might come home with a shiny new trinket on the 01 Virgin.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]

Patsraptor- I now run MBRP exhaust. It GETS THE JOB DONE. I have run many different pipes gyrt, T-4, Trinity, Bills, FMF and Big gun. I sold all of those on ebay after i finished testing the pipe that martin at mbrp built for Raptorrc and his 686's. It is the best pipe by far, it is not obnoxious loud and the build quailty is second to none. I have seen the ct, graydon, yoshi, alaba and others in person. Of those i like the yoshi the best for looks. I do not think another pipe is in my future cause i had the pipe i needed built for me. Give MBRP a look

I run the Sparks X6, it's spendy at $500+ but it's spark arrested and much quieter than most systems like the Big Gun which I used to run. It makes good power and feels more torquey than ever. I dont know if it's the end all of pipes as I havent owned but 2 of the aftermarket systems but I'm satisfied. Btw the X6 is ceramic coated which is extra on other pipes.
