Super Jet What pipe???????????????????????????

best pipe or best bang for your buck 2001 701 superjet
all i ever hear is factory be is the best but for almost 800 bucks and limited numbers is it really worth it. im not doing back flips, im just looking to upgrade to a better lighter pipe. guy wants to sell me a factory pipe on here for 800 plus shipping and thats like 80 bucks. so almost 900 bucks for a pipe just seems crazy. help a brother out.

Ya, still a B-pipe..... Coffmans Sizzlers are good.... but you would be better just running OEM until you can afford a b-pipe

I had a protec mach1 pipe that hit harder then my bpipe, but my lowered hood would only fit a bpipe or a power factor. if your just looking to freeride i would probably go with a pro tec. but if your trying to save weight, and if your going to be flopping the ski on its side a lot, go with the bpipe. jetx is right, 800 is way too much for a used bpipe

The big advantage of a b-pipe is easy installation, no hassle removal, and about zero maintenance. There are plenty of other, cheaper pipes. They just take more work to install right and more maintenance. Speedwerx, Type 4, Type 9, Riva Freeride Dry, and Protec pipes are all good options with a bit of work.

No kidding. I sold a good, ported and bored b-pipe with accessories for about $600.
 
the pipe was brand new. and i just checked the shipping and its like 80 bucks. i havent found anything on craigs and no real bites on the wanted parts ads on here or pwc today.

I bought a used RIVA wet pipe from a member on here for around $370 and it was mint. Made a huge difference from the stock setup. It was a b**ch to put on without pulling the motor but well worth it. Keep looking and something decent will pop up. Im going to save getting the B-pipe until I buy a better motor which will hopefully be soon.

Protec Mach Pipe for $300-$350 is good... I had one and never had an issue with installation. Used B-pipes when priced right dont stay for sale very long. But, I would keep looking, seems like a bunch of guys are making the leap to Power Factor (from b-pipes).
 
I beat this decision to a pulp, trolled threads for hours...bought a PS 'poor mans sizzler' on fleabay...got hosed by the infamous jetskibuzzard, returned it and then paid the big numbers for a true blue B pipe....holy braap am i glad.
Quit dik_in around and buy the real thing man, honestly, there are no two ways about it. Its a B pipe or bust
 
Speedwerx, factory pipe, and coffman dry pipes can make as good or better power than a "b pipe". Most people love the B pipe because it is a great all around pipe, great power, easy to tune, easy to work on, and very reliable.(it wont fall off or break). all Of the dry pipes I mentioned IMO can make More power when tuned right. They are all way harder to work on, some times hard to tune, and need to be alined and shimmed by someone very familiar with dry pipes, or they will burn o rings and couplers like mad. So since I like to ride my ski more than I work on it, and if I do have to work on it, I like to make it quick, soooo I like running b pipes.
 
Just got a wamiltons factory b pipe Ported with dual cooling. I figured I can use it on any modded motor I get down the road so why not get it now. Btw wamiltons owner is a pretty cool guy.

I luv the b-pipe done get me wrong...but have had almost every pipe...lol protec,s are good bang for the buck...but can be a pain...(if doing rolls)...the b-pipe is the best pipe for decent power and zero maint...but i have a factory dry pipe...on my 96 sj single carb 44...tdr water box...it rips freakin hard...now that ive put a bottom end new impellar in...its perfect(gonna add water injection soon) we have a 09 superjet with a b-pipe and other mods...it feels like a old 550 after riding with the dry pipe...it sucks to work on though...but its held up to my riding...lol
