best y-pipe?

[sno*jet]

thinking ill try an aftermarket y-pipe next year. Maybe it will clear up some of the downhill stubble?
i see theres a few choices:
BDX/SSI, D&D, bikeman, and.. ??
I think the speedwerx is out for me as it says fuel controller required. I dont wanna get into that. This will go on a 17MC, any opinions? Im thinking maybe at least two of these companies might be the same exact header but idk..
Is the BDX their own design or just one of the fore-mentioned brands that they sell under their own name?
anyways, :beer;

also what was the outcome of this pipe?

I run the SSI y-pipe and you can feel the added mid range power ����with it. The overall build quality such as the welds don't look very clean but I have had zero issues with cracks with around 600 miles. The chrome finish does turn brown over time. Overall I would buy one again for the price and hp gains.

BMP or D&D if you do just the y pipe. Best durability and power.

Two of us in my group have the SSI y-pipe this year. Both sleds seem to run great, buddy on a bigbore pro actually accused me of piping my sled this year but it's got nothing but the y-pipe and a diamond s can. No experience with other y-pipes

Sorry to say that I don't think you will fix the low end bog (if that's what you mean?) with just a y-pipe.

Y-pipe

Been running the SSI/BDX y pipe and can all season. Would recommend them to any cat rider.

I don't know about that one but it was an SLP system with stock ECU reflash that Eric was posting about on here. It's still not on the website.

 

[RACINSTATION]

No. The pipe in the link is the TSS pipe. If you have questions on the SLP or want one, just call 208-354-2777. We don't have it on the website and may not get it up this year. People are purchasing them the old fashioned way every week and loving it.

One vote for BMP here...

Yup agreed. All smiles here for the Y and can. I will also add the SSI mountain head domes were a massive improvement for low to mid. Blown away

DynoTech numbers on Y-pipes

It may be a bit dated, but DynoTech did an informative study on Y-pipes on '10 & '11 Crossfire Suzuki 800 HO's. This may not be an equal evaluation for the newer Zuke 800's with aftermarket Y-pipes as the Y-pipes are the same but the '10 & ;11 Arctic Cat 800's ran a different stock expansion pipe & different mapping with more timing. The results are nonetheless interesting; The D&D & Speedworks Y-pipes did add HP plus torque but at different max RPM. The BMP (Bikeman) Y-pipe did not add much until it was paired with their Big-Azz pipe! READ IT.:eyebrows:

 

[sno*jet]

The BMP sure looks nice.
I was curious on that TSS pipe because it says no fuel controller and adds low end.
My 17 seems to run kinda lean around 7300-7500rpm, just going off sound of it, i might be wrong, but certainly dont wanna burn the thing down with a little mod like this.

no bog, but it loads up when decending steep hills. not a big deal, would be nice if it cleared out quicker tho.

Ours are made of stainless steel. They are $149.95 and they really do work very well.
We picked up 7 hp and 4 lb/ft of torque in the mid range and 3-5 hp peak depending on the rpm. I say that because it has a lot broader powerband than stock. Where the stock exhaust has a pretty narrow powerband at 8100 rpm peak, with our Y pipe it makes the same power from 7900-8300.


When you put them on, you can feel the difference instantly. They work

 

[sno*jet]

cool thanks for the reply SSI. I was leaning toward a D&D but yours seems like a good choice in stainless. I over rev down low a little so that im perfect rpm up high, so good to know yours wont fall off on hp at 82-8300 like it appears the BMP one does, from that dynotech article mentioned.
thanks for the posts guys

I'm running the ssi kit all year on my 17MC and have no complaints, sled runs great and does add power as I gained track speed

 

[8secolds]

A Y-Pipe and Reeds will really wake the 800 up. Reeds really work on this engine as well. Lots of dyno info on HCS about these mods.

Quick question for SSI. Website says the Y-Pipe will fit 2010-16. Is there something different for '17 or site just not updated yet. Thank you for your time.

Looks like I need to do a quick update. Thanks!
