Can you put a B-pipe in a DVX or Kdx

[pioui1]

Is the elbow from the b-pipe cause some complication with the hood , any problem with the water box in the nose of the ski

My hood liner had to be cut in the dvx

The "enough DVX build threads already" DVX build

While none may be interested in seeing another DVX assembled, I have decided to document this build for posterity's sake anyway. I am late to the party this year with this build, but my work schedule would not allow this to happen sooner, and really I don't have time for this now, but I am...

Here's one but not any really good pics of how the pipe fits

with the current over pricing of bpipes selling for the same as laydown pipes, why not just trade your bpipe for a laydown and get more power at the same time?

B pipe is less maintenance. Less likely to fail from sand or debri intrusion. Less likely to leak water into the engine while running. Easier to tune on a smaller engine. Less likely to backfill and hydrolock. Fits better (usually) and is alot easier to keep cool (does not require dual cooling)

Tons of reasons to run a b pipe

My mane reason to switch is the noise , that is it

the only issue ive seen be an issue is water backfilling but beyond that as long as theyre properly installed the laydown pipes are actually easier to work around. dual cooling is a standard on every ski. with proper supplied filters, sand and debris shouldnt be an issue. the adjuster screws on the factory headpipes clog up and seize pretty easily making the pipe non tunable anymore as well.

I guess thats why surf guys use laydown pipes. Because they are so user friendly. Your right. B pipes suck

*you're

I never said bpipes suck I have one on my ski I'm saying they're not the holy grail of pipes theyre made out to be and if I'm not mistaken, a DVX is a flat water ski, not a surf ski anyways.

Doubt he's making too many trips to the surf with a purpose built flatwater freestyle hull.

Ur right. Laydown pipes are just badass. Make you go 2x as high. Make skis just go ham flatwater. No one would ever ride a short hull in the surf. Only laydown pipes go in short hulls.

Super easy to find the o rings I need for mine. Haha jk. Ski is down while I wait for them. Super cool. Super awesome also to not be able to use the eaterbox intended unless the entire ski was originally built around it.

Not like I own all 3 pipes or anything. Or skis with them currently installed. Or ride every other day. Your right, factory pipe gives me free pipes to lie to everyone and say they are a better option sometimes than a laydown.

That will depend on what waterbox you run. Some are definitely louder than others. I have a jetmaniac box in my ski and it's not very loud. Tdr box is loud for sure.
