Dom or dom clones decent.
Not  a big fan of the baja jetpro pipes.
Another good pipe range are the vrc ones

holler

sambaja pipe is good, kicks up the power but it more of a track pipe with a smooth power band.

i now run a ddm, it much louder than the samba but it has the low rpm kick that i like from my engines.

GBE end bleed is still my favorite pipe.  Its a very different power delivery to the DOM!  They sound absolutely fantastic!

I've had a few pipes :whistling:

JetPro V3 -  All Top End speed runs only
JetPro V2 Track Pipe - Quiet, Smooth power because it doesn't really give any !
Samba V2 - Quiet, Smooth power because again it doesn't give a lot
Dom V1 - All Noise and Low End
Dom V2 - Slightly Different Noise and all Low End
VRC Big Bore Rear - Low to Mid, nice sound, suited to ported motors
VRC Pro Side - loud lacking a bit on low end, mad top end
Bartelone 5T Torpedo side pipe - loud and mad low end, revs well too
GBE End Bleed - Mad Loud decent thorugh the range

Sure I've had more but there you go

I've kept the VRC Unsilenced Pro Side Pipe and Bartelone Torpedo on my 2 as I like side pipes
My LAd runs a V2 dom as it suits his on off throttle driving style

If you have a standard motor, go for the vrc!, ive seen stock baja with this pipe beat on buggys with ported motors,tuned pipe.
if you have a budget, go for the fake dom...,if anybody tells you not to buy the clone dom because it a clone,or it fXXks up the market,then tell them to pet the extra 65 quid to it,the dom clones give great power, thats what buzz runs on a stock engine baja,ITS DOING 68MPH!!

The Big Bore gives low to mid
The Pro give mid to high

The pro was designed around the Full mod OBR motor, and is suited to it really well.
The BigBore is a more generic design

Silenced versions of each give a little more low end, but don't sound as angry !

Depends whaty your style is, there is no one magic pipe that I've found.

If you've got a big torque tuned motor, VRC Pro pipe, the motor will pull tall gearing easily and rev all the way up on the Pro pipe.

If you've got one the revier small cc motors, decent high RPM clutch spring and the VRC Pro pipe and it'll scream really quickly ;)
