its bad, theres only going to be 2 votes for the PSI because i believe theres only 2 of us on here who have ran them
Had one on a 84 kx125 and it ripped... Then again I was 13 and that was 23 years ago.

PSI. Looks like an FMF but it's fatter and a little different shape




I can't remember the guy with PSI but he said it doesn't look like one of their normal pipes they made. He told me it looked a bit bigger

So got ahold of Trinity and PSI yesterday. Neither are making pipes now, PSI said they haven't made a lt250 pipe in 20 years and they don't have the tooling anymore to do them. So both of them will need to be removed from the poll.
I've also been trying to get ahold of Alan at LED before I even started this thread but he doesn't answer his phone. Bill's phone seems to mess up more than it goes through but Ill keep trying.
There is also one more person... Klemm

PSI has great product but probally better not to deal with Bruce from what I,ve heard.Horrible customer service and quite a number of people he,s apparently screwed over.Never had any dealings with him but that's the word in the snowmobile community.Spent ALOT of time in court at one point.Maybe he,s changed but Sounds a lot like MHR.Buyers beware.I will say he had some kick ass sno stuff.

Here are pic of the  ones I own (production or not)

I'll start with the most endorsed pipe..... the "FULL" FMF

Then there is the Trinity pipe (stage 7 I think)



And then there's the Shearer

I have one of the old LRD  pipes, picked it up for 200 a few years back. I also have a Paul Turner Hi Rev neends a little work though. When I got it the flange was welded to the pipe I only paid 50 for it so I just ran it until it finally broke, but I still have it and plan on getting it fixed or letting it go to someone who wants it, get pipe though.

Im extremely anxious to get a FTZ pipe because I hear mixed reviews on it and I think it will offer more than an "inframe drag pipe".

I feel it when the powerband hits it pulls hard for acpl hundred RPMs then falls flat for second then starts pulling again. it seems theres not much left after the dip so it makes shifts confusing 2c

Yes to the EGT. An no to the dent. It's part of my snowboard pants that I wear on the ice. I need new gear for sure.
