fantom .21 single chamber pipes?

[alkyula]

so whats everyone think about these http://www.fantom-motors.com/catalog/index.php?prod_id=80
my LHS has both the dual and single chamber versions in, and I'm kinda diggin the single chamber, at least on paper. i know of other pipes which are proven, but i want something different. so, anyone ever seen/ran one of these yet?

I have never seen one run before, but I've heard that they are VERY good. I am going to get the RPM pipe if I get a GS Storm.

thx for the reply, hearing you say that you heard those pipes are very good only increases the very high chance the next time i stop by the LHS on my way to work ill end up pullin the card out. actually if i get another good response in the next hour before work its in the bag...peace--

well have been running the fantom torque pipe for about 1 quart now with my xtm 24.7 that is in the x-terminator deluxe. overall build of the pipe is decent, welds could be better..but they get the job done. the stock pipe that came with the deluxe modle buggy was a black aluminum dual chamber pipe..the first chamber was very long so it was proably desighnd to be a low end pipe. one of the nicer pipes that comes on a RTR. the fantom pipe makes the 24.7 act much diffrent than stock..while the stock pipe had a very smooth power delivery with no sudden jumps in power all the way to max rpm, the fantom kinda blows up after about a second of full clamping the trigger..and it seems to make the engine reach full power very early. although this pipe is suposed to lower max rpm on the engine..the fact it revs up so fast makes the buggy seem faster as it reaches high speeds very quick now. although it did make it harder to drive on dirt becuase of the explosive, sudden power delivery. the sound is loud...and has a brat-brat at idle, while "on-pipe" it has a low pitch dirt bike sound..and is pretty loud compared to most pipes. in all I'm happy.
