I dont, i ran both back to back and only use the B for simplicity, gasgas been running his for 3 seasons and loves it exept for maintainance or access to the head.

Yea I would rather have mine hanging on the wall than to have sold it. I don't know what it was about that speedwerks but it was pretty dang amazing. But I still clearly and without a doubt picked up quite a bit of off idle throttle response with the B. I may have lost 500 R's but it was night and day to my riding style.

ive never blown any coupler's yet but it is hard to get to the head thats forsure.. i think if you dont have a handful of mods the type4 is the best bang for the buck when you set it up properly..

my type 4 hits good. but i have a ton of chit done to my ski. it had the same coupler for about 5 years until i started riding in the surf and beating up my ski. i love the pipe and i have seen the same unreliability out of b-pipes (cracked manifolds and blown out couplers) but if i was starting from scratch i would use a b-pipe simply for the room in the hull.
only real reason i switched

if you get the type 4 shoot me a pm and ill let you know the carb setup on the wife's ski it has cutback prop,inchancer,head and thats about it and ive rode a sj with the same mods and a b pipe and a bunch of people said mine hit harder including the owner.. imho if you plan on building a big motor eventually go for the b pipe but if $$ is a issue go for the type4 and for the extra $50 the injection will clean up the bottom end..
LOL....I was thinking the opposite......if you have enough money to put 160HP behind a dry go for it...if you plan on running limited motors...then B.
Hell I don't know. I give up. I am just happy to finally be happy with a ski! My B piped non ported 180psi 13/16-3 light weight hull rips! And this same motor with 2 different dry pipes ripped too....but at higher R's.

blah blah blah. its all BS. this thread has been started and read 1000 plus times. everyone needs to get the F over thier big c@ck stories about their pipe. it all depends on your setup anyone with any common sense knows that. B-pipe, dry pipe, dirt pipe, whatever. they all make power. but different mods compliment in different ways. and they all break in the surf. :deadhorse::deadhorse::deadhorse:
