History on this pipe

[Bocaj88]

Hi, sorry if this has already been covered but I can’t seem to find it. I bought a ski with what I thought was a B Pipe, when I got there I noticed it wasn’t the stock head pipe. After looking at it more I found it’s labeled “Butch’s Factory Pipe” I cant seem to find this pipe online. How does it perform against a B pipe? Is it the same thing? Comparison to a mod or limited?

Does the headpipe have 2 water adj or 3 chamber looks like a mod

back in the day, factory pipe used to sell to other companies and put their logo on there at their request. that head pipe was a team butch and I've seen them with mariner on there too. it ant nothing special, out of the ordinary or of any difference than one that just says factory pipe. its clearly an old mod chamber since it has the weld that shortened it from a limited chamber. they made new tooling that now just stamps shorter mod chambers instead of having to cut and weld.

History correctly stated!

I had a Kawi one that was a "Mariner" Factory pipe years ago, interested as to why the water fitting is on the front down by the coupler?

The FP on my X2 is one of the early ones with only two water screws and the fittings are in the same locations.
