What's everyones opinion on the best replacement for the factory rickter scupper? I'm leaning towards thrust, but want to make sure i'm not missing anything else out there.

Thrust ball scupper works well. Way better than the rubber flap.

I just installed a versa plug for Rickter in mine. Did not want to deal with removing the trim ring.

Do not know if it shows it here. It is the versa plug max for rickter. Any hot products dealer can get. Or buy direct?

Ok, maybe I'm a stuck up snob but the thrust plug looks much better than the versa.... lol. Sticking a versa plug on a rickter with what it costs is like putting a huge spoiler on a four door honda civic....

You realize the one I listed goes inside the scupper tube. You remove the rubber flap.

Can you share a pic of yours?
I bought the thrust one but have not installed and would opt out if there is an easier route.

Yes
I replaced the rear RRP scupper a couple years ago (photo). IMO The Thrust ball valve works great. To me it's easier to remove the 4 screws to clean the ball than the other type where you have to drive out a roll pin to remove the ball. I would like to replace the 2nd scupper also (Comp XFS), but there's no room for a 2nd ball valve because of the exhaust pipe. This winter I'm thinking about fabing up a plate of some sort to replace the scupper with two or three of the small versa plugs that would screw into the plate and hopefully only stick out an inch so it clears the pump when you unscrew them.

I see what you're talking about now, I was looking at the ones that appeared surface mount. I'm still vain I guess.... lol . I just ordered the Thrust today, we'll see how it goes.
