I bought a Biturbo pipe and it doesent work, its hard to get my tomos targa lx to start and when it does unless I am pulling the accelerator the bike shuts off. also after running my bike for less than 2 mins the bike shuts off and wont kick start. I put the old stock tomos pipe and now it runs great, If any one has any explanation for my prolem or any ideas please respond. thanks
do I need to add any other parts to make the pipe work and not damage my tomos?
You probably need to put a bigger jet in your carb...Those pipes lean out your gas/air mixture. A super lean ped could be hard to start, and run like crap.
SO what exactly do I need to purchase for my moped?
a carb jet 2-3 sizes bigger than stock. Whatever that may be.
blow some compressed air through the pipe and make sure its not blocked up, pull out the packing in the silencer end and check with a flashlight in there too, sounds like theres somthing blocking the pipe (like a piece of packing) also you could try running somthing through the pipe, like a heavy piece of wire, just make sure its clear. had a similar problem with my honda mini trail when i was lil, only to find there was a big dirt clod cemented in the end of the muffler! :P

Brian,
Look in Fred's guide for "plug chop". This will explain how to select the correct jet size.
