SLP does have the head---a 6000' head adds another 3 hp peak and 8hp mid---total increase with head and pipe is 8hp peak and 18hp mid---dont know the cost but can look it up today---they dont test the 8000'+ head at slp because they are at around 5500' and it would not give true readings and would require race fuel at that low altitude---
SLP head is $350.00

You know I'm not trying to start anything, but i sit here and read this and those numbers are very very high. Almost to the point of not being able to believe it. Im curious if they would let their customers have a 'Money Back Gaurantee' to really see how well these work. Hey maybe they are good products, but i would like to see how this will go over.

we have used SLP pipes on cat-and-polaris for7years and never seen anything but great results
---you sit back and watch--mine is here waiting the 09-x
So here is my question for the crowd........
As can be seen in the SLP catalog, the graph showing the HP gains VS the stock pipe show that the new pipe gains the highest HP from 8200 RPM's to 8400 RPM's then tails off to only have a few more HP at 8500 RPM's than the stock pipe. It appears at 8200 RPM's it is nearly 8HP above the stock pipe. Does this mean that we need to tune our sleds for 82-8300 RPM's to get the most gain? Or is it just a bad graph?
Help me out Mr. T/A....
I am not going to be real pleased with my purchase if I only get around 2-3 HP gain.

Have you installed yours yet? Read a link on a nightmare install. Would like to hear how the install goes and some pics would be helpful. Still trying to sell my 06 then I'll be buying a set.

my 09 has a sticker by the clutch that states 8200 rpm + or- 100
Hey T/A That pipe looks to be very close to the plastic in the front . . . do you see any potential for melting problems on warmer days?
