I have a strong running stock 05 900 and I am now looking to add some performance for long pulls. I have been very happy with the performance of this sled right out of the box. I have had several chances to run this sled against other 9's (05 and 06) and this thing has been untouchable. Now I am starting to get out run by my friends newer xp 800's and would like a performance upgrade. Should I go with a slp pipe and clutching or just go the nitrous route?
Clutching & Pipe or NOS on 05 900?

Start with the pipe and clutching! If you still have stock clutching then a little work will wake it right up, I wouldn't judge it off of other possibly poorly clutched sleds(not trying to say anything bad) I just did this on mine this season and I can't seem to keep my handle bars from moving back! It makes it fun all over again.
If you are found wanting after that then do some funny gas.

start with a pipe and clutch it perfect...gears as well..
drop a few pounds off it here and there...vent it...
THEN...Demolish!!

X3! I completely agree! HAHA!
What are you running on the sled with stock pipe for clutching and gears? I ride 6000-9000ft. I am a firm believer in finding the right clutching for optimum performance. I am a bit hesitant on buying the SLP pipe, because in the past, I felt that putting aftermarket pipes on a sled didn't improve it as much as clutching. I live in Michigan and ride in WYO, so it limits me on testing different setups. Any feedback would be appreciated.
