I ride with a wide group of guys who own Raptors. The Curtis Sparks x-6 pipe is far the best performing
pipe that I have seen. If I owned a Raptor, I would get the Sparks pipe. Without any question!

 

As you know I really like my X6, I prefer the stainless head pipe for both looks & durability, I have heard that the ceramic keeps the heat in & is susposed to increase the efficancy of the pipe a bit.
You can't beat the build quality of the X6 & the roar it makes is an awsome sound with out being obnoxious!

yes the same "can" is used on both systems.
I've never thought about changing pipes but on our Compound Sahara trip in May I'm bringing some extra exhaust gaskets, we're going to do some pipe swapping & have an a$$ dyno pipe shootout of our own.

 

Sparks wins hands down!

 

DANG IT ~ somebody out there want to buy a Full W.B. SS exhaust system??[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

I gotta talk with "X"!

 

I got 2 raptors with sparks pipes thier awsome! Ceramic is the way to go s.s. will start to blue and change color,it never comes back to looking good. Performance is great! hey, add a sparks cam and piston and you will fly!

 

I have one and love it, but it doesnt shine anymore. Wish it could be polished to shine but once its dull its dull. Still looks good when cleaned, I wouldnt trade it for anything else still.

Rudy there some polish called SEMICHROME and thats the stuff the ceramic company that Spark uses told me to use this stuff to keep in clean and shiny

 

Patsraptor- did you notice the sparks pipe on the black raptor at FSW?? It had really been worked over by curtis for more flow.

 

patsraptor, where do u get that from never heard of it.
