Default Which Tuned Pipe?

Hi,
I was just looking at tuned pipes and maybe I wont get it right now, but just wanted to know... What is the difference between 086, 007, 056, EFRA 2045, 2050, 2066, 20XX... Kinda wondering what should I get? Which are loud and which are heavy sounding?

I'd like something with a heavy sound, or maybe sometime something that is louder.

I have the Axe Rossi Mamba X1 Evolution Engine w/EFRA 2050 Tuned Pipe on my MP777.

i belive any multi chamber low-end torque pipe is going to have the heaviest loudest sound, it will boost your low end for some reduction in top end power.

as for model numbers i dont have a flippin clue.

I highly recommend the Dynamite tuned pipes, they come in 007, 053, & 086 with reinforced stingers...

As far as differences:

the 007 is know for it's low end performance and will really drive your low end from your engine off the line, good for small tight tracks where you are not going to be hitting alot of high end.

the 053 is a mid range pipe where you will see performance improvments in your engines mid band performance good for mixed tracks wheer you are doing a combination of open with a tight technical section.

the 086 is a top performance pipe where your most significant gains are see at higher RPMs. this is best suited for open and flowing tracks where you can let er rip.

+1 on the dynamite pipes. i have the 007 and 053 and they are awesome. i only run the 053 now and i also have a JP3 and i like the dynamite way more.

what I like best about the dynamites is they are basically the same as the OS counterparts, durable as all heck, and cost under 60 bucks... best bang for buck out there!!!

And if you want just a loud pipe with some proformance find someone who has an old jamming JP-3 pretty tought pipe pretty loud. Not the real top pipe they thought it was going to be but not bad pipe!!!

I dont want a high pitch, just a lot of low noise...

I think I will go for the dynamite 053 or 088.

Thanks all!
I like a real gutsy engine sound.
