my friend is rolling some rockets and im getting a set for sure. they sound great and my friend says that he had to add more to jetting than any other after market pipes, and he can feel the change in power and response. but he also has a rz350 power valve motor so when i ride it it feels fast as hell compaired to my banshee which has only some small mods to the motor.

From what I have read and understand about them is they have the potential of running comparable to the CPI's and shearer's but port timing is more critical on them. Implying that at certain specs they will outperform some others but at other specs they aren't so hott. Aside from all that I just dont care for the way they look. I like a fat pipe as much as the next guy but just am not a big fan of the rockets look. Personally I would go with shearer's so I could at least change or access the plugs if necessary, that and his pipes are very well proven.

i love mine and dont care for the other brands .the spark plugs are very easy to change out and carbs arent an issue either(plenty of clearance there too)
shearers are topend drag only pipes bottom end kinda blows ...not much backpressure because of a huge exhaust silencer outlet and thers no option for an airbox ,where i ride in Pa you will need some of that airbox or you wont ride very long! . ive never seena dyno chart where shearers pulled a rocket to date .cpi are close but dont make the bottom end .torque these claims are based off of a dune/drag style port job of coarse.when yo uget into these highass exhaust numbers your gonna want all the bottom end torque your motor can muster up IMO

Shearers usually put up higher numbers than CPI's. I am going to talk to matt and see if he has any version with a better band and maybe sacrifice some top end.

Ok that sound a little better from you original post someone could have taken it that a stock banshee with those pipes will have that HP. Then we would have a bunch of people running around saying there banshee must have 200hp because they have rockets and a K&N bolt-on

Thanks
