Anyone know anything about CT midrange pipes

[Blowtie316]

I bought this banshee (my first) 2 weeks ago. It came with CT midrange pipes I believe. I can't seem to find much information on them searching here or on google.  Are these CT midrange pipes?  If so, does anyone have any experience with them?

 

I don't like the silencers and was considering buying different pipes but if these are good pipes I might just keep them and mod the silencers to my liking.

 

This will be for the typical dune, drag, trail bike, it is a 4 mil motor now and will get a FAST dune/play port.

I seem to remember that CT used Power Pros to make their pipes. Might look in that direction.

They look kind of like the LRD adjustables i had back in the day.

I have 3 sets of LRD pipes one adjustable set on 2 regular sets. Those look nothing like the LRD pipes I have

I'm pretty sure they're power pros.

Sprink is right, those are power pro's.

10-4, I'll look into power pros.  I am certain they are not the LRD adjustable, by buddy has those.

 

Anyone know about the power pros? worth trying to keep or should I start thinking about buying pipes?

They're good all around pipes.

Keep em for a playbike. They make good power until the cyls are drag ported then cpi or shearers are better. They look like powerpros to me too and I used to have a set on a 370 I liked.

Those are bitchin' trail bike pipes. I've only seen a few pairs. One on stock stroke and another set on a F.A.S.T. 4 mil. Really crisp all arounder. Yours actually seem to be in pretty great shape for their age. Keep those!

Cool, Thanks for the feedback, I like the pipes but hate the silencers and the way the slide together.  I'm going to start researching for a silencer swap of some sort.

If you're ok with a welder, shearer sells his silencers with a bolt on flange that you weld to the stinger tube.

Thanks for the info.

 

Well welding is no problem, I build all sorts of stuff and have a mig and tig.  Problem is I don't like the way the pipe slides into the stinger tube, it's sloppy and bulky.  Also the end cap on the silencer is just ugly.  I was thinking about trying some toomey silencers or something.  My buddies have LRD and Toomey t5s.  I'll pull those off an see how much it would take to make one of those work.  I see used toomeys on ebay for reasonable money.  i just figured if I didn't like the pipes, I would just get a different pipe/silencer combo.
