hillcrazedbanshee Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 You will lose top end. I had the T5's and now have sst's and its a diference between night and day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nickxc Posted July 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Man I really thought I would gain top end. I'll prolly keep em then... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wesw Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 i doubt you will lose top end with a set of t5s. by the way there are nice pipes. i would go for it. it isnt like you see abunch of people with hopped up engines with sst, most are cpi, t5s, etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
az426 Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 for what its worth,i have sst's and my nephew has t-5's on our identical prepped shee's.racing up the hills at the dunes neither of us can pull the other.one of us may pull a half a bike at the start then its all the same.i dont know why some one would think that if you mod you bike w/ sst's it wouldnt run correctly but maybe.maybe its too what level,porting shoudnt hurt.

nickxc Posted July 16, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Idk what I should do. I have my sst's on ebay and I would like to find another set of pipes on ebay similarly priced and in similar condition... but different brand... but if Its not gunna be a good difference I might just can the idea? I have just a mild port. my exhaust ports are slightly lifted other than that its just a cleanup I think... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toomey Banshee Posted July 16, 2004 Report Share Posted July 16, 2004 Just go with the CPI's and be done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 in your sig it says this is just the start, so i guess it would really depend on where you are going to take this. if youre going towards dune/drag then cpi's are gods gift to the masses. i dont really know about the other kinds of pipes you use for trails and stuff so someone help me finish this.

nickxc Posted July 17, 2004 Author Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 Im not intending on competing in any serious racing I just wanna be fast!!! I run long roads and open dunes most of the time. when Im in the woods its only to get to another road or dune so woods power isn't really a concern. I wanna be fast! thats really it. I cant seem to go fast enough... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2001SSTBanshee Posted July 17, 2004 Report Share Posted July 17, 2004 IMO the sst's power comes on a bit quicker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
