FMF pipe Round Two

[trailryder]

I'm guessing everyone who upgrades their KDX with a pipe puts on a K-30 or K-35 pipe and loves the powerband for that particular application. And in most cases are willing to live with the ill fitting pipes or having to fix them. My question is....how do the PRO CIRCUIT or DG or DYNO pipes compare performance wise to the FMF pipes?????Anyone used both. Santa's gonna put a pipe under my tree this year and I'm open to other suggestions.........

I put a dynport pipe on my 220 this spring. A guy I work with used to race and had very good experience with dynoport, but I personally can't compare to others.

I can tell you all that the dynoport fit absolutely perfectly. I had it installed in less than 10 minutes. No problems. From what I have seen with poor fit issues on this site, I would highly recommend the dynoport.

sean- thanks for the info.I wish all manufacters would put out real dyno test results.You know they have them, how else could they make the best/specific powerband spreads for a given pipe.I'm gonna get in touch with each man. and post what they tell me about their pipes.

I put a FMF Gnarly (woods) pipe on my 05 KDX 220 and it fit fine. I also Installed the Turbin Core 2 silencer, both were put on in about 20 minutes. All items were got from the local bike shop.

I liked the FMF because I "think" the Gnarly is made with thicker steel. More dent resistance.

the Pro Circuit "platinum2" is also made of the thicker 18 ga. metal like the FMF pipe.

My FMF pipe an silencer is also a good fit nad good power.
The seem to consistentenly score well in all magazine dyno tests on both 2 & 4 strokes.
I'm betting it's a QC issue and not a matter of the manufacturer being able to measure correctly in regards to fit
