MOPED ARMY

I have a technigas R on my 04 sprint which has an a35 engine. Assuming the pipes produce the same powerban on the newer engines... I love it, its a great pipe. It has better low and mid range power than pipes like the bi-turbo and bullet, and only slightly less top end. An awsome all around piep. So if your looking for something like that, its the way to go. With my airsal kit and all my other mods it takes hills like a champ; holds speed well on the hill, and I've taken monster hills that used to make me pedal at 25mph.

This is just my personal opinion and testimony. There are endless debates as to which pipe is "the best", but its best to just do some research and searching on how they perform, and fit the pipe peformance to your particular need.

thanks for your input. anyone else know if this pipe will for sure fit an 08 ST with the A55? and if steves moped shop is the only place i can find one?

...

good luck finding that pipe for a good price though - it seems like right now everyone has it for expensive (steves) or out of stock (everywhere else)

seriously, do a google search for that pipe (and include "cart" or something to filter out entries that talk about it but arent selling it), and everywhere that sells it for cheaper than steve does (lowest i saw is 115 or something at some weird dj shop) is out of stock - just call any one of them to find out.

call steve's beforehand just to make sure they're in stock.

(i had an order in at mopeshop for one on may 29, and just cancelled my order at the beginning of this week because it's been in a perpetual state of "hopefully it'll come in soon" - it should be noted that this isn't mopedshop's fault, and i've had really good experiences with them)

just for comparison, they were selling it for 140

i think steve is selling it for 189?

i'm totally jewish (literally), but if someone's offering it for significantly cheaper, i can't get myself to pay more... even if the cheaper ones are all out of stock

...so i got an estoril from treats, its for an a35 (different angle exhaust header mount than a55, but i have to modify whatever i get anyways because its an engine from a streetmate on a different bike)

Whoa... not Steve's Mopeds and Bicycle World. They are the worst people to work with. Dan the shipping manager is full of shit and will not ship your order and may even cuss you out in the end. If you want to waste your time and not get your parts they're the man.

On the other hand, the Technigas Next R pipe is about the best all around pipe for the a55. It has the best low end and mid range and a good high end. The biturbo is faster in the high end but lack a little in the low and mid range.
