Anyone have a 5T with a GBE Hornet?
 
I bought a KM T1000 and now I'm looking at pipes. If someone here has a picture of their 5T with a GBE Hornet, I would like to see how it looks on your truck.

What are you plans fot the 5T

Do you like smooth pipes. Then the Hornet is for you. It was not for me! I dont like that kind of powerband.
The Hornet is a "TRACK PIPE" Smooth from bottom to top. Also relitavely quiet to boot. One of the quiter pipes on the market

I will be using my 5T strictly for bashing at a gravel pit and an open lot with some jumps by the local hardware store. After looking at several pipes tonight I'm now leaning towards the DDM 5T Dominator and Lunatik Rabid. Those pipes look like they put the power down and they sound cool too.

I have a DDM Dominator T specific pipe, I was not happy with the power it made. Some are. I wasn't. It is more of a torque pipe, and it is out of place ont he T just my experience.

I am running a Victory Pro on my T now, I have also ran a DDM Dominator V2 and I was very happy with the power that pipe makes.

I would suggest either a Dominator V2 or Victory Pro from experience.

With the Dominator v2 do you have to trim the body on the 5t for the exhaust to exit?

I didn't I had a 1/2" street Refrigeration 90 degree elbow I held it on with a 1" piece of that high temp silicone tubing that DDM sells. You will like that pipe though. Also check out the Victory Pro pipes at O'Neill brothers. THe V@ is a awsome bashing pipe, I never damaged mine in gallons of hard bashng. My V2 lives on my B now and is still going strong.

Thanks for the information clubin. The Dominator v2 is the pipe I'm going to get.

If you are going to bash it I would suggest you take a look at the CPI pipe, it is a great pipe and is well protected. Here is a video of the CPI pipe in action.[link]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WcOPCDb3Xzk[/link]
