Title: Pipe choice questions....
Post by: fx4pitrone on August 15, 2013, 11:32:57 PM

I have 3 pipes and need to decide which one to use....
ESR trx-6 pipe
PT Type 6 pipe
FMF pipe (can't remember which one exactly, Ill find out)...
Motor (stock cyl) will have a mid-range port...

I wand more low to mid range, and more torquier easier to ride power, but w/ good all around power.  Not concerned w/ much power up top, because the wood/trails we ride don't usually allow for that.  I want to be able to torque it up a rocky hillclimb w/ some technical spots and big rocks that I can't barrel over...

Which pipe will be my best bet?
And what is the trx-6 pipe best at?  I see it's no longer offered....
Thanks!

I would go with the trx6.  It is an mx/woods pipe.  Not much different than the trx7 that they offer now.  The PT type 6 is strictly a woods pipe.  The trx6 would be better all around, but still have better low/mid than the other ESR pipes.  If you have a fatty pipe, the TRX6 would probably have better low/mid over it too.  Try the trx6.  If you still want more low end, then try the PT6.

I would start off with the trx6. I have never ran a pt type 6 myself but the trx6 has a large woods fan base. Go from there.
