Default gg pipe vs fmf gnarly

hit something on my 07 last weekend and took a little dirt sample and broke 2 ribs.. crushed the gg pipe that was on it and am looking for a new one..
all i am really finding is a gnarly and was just wondering what difference there was between the 2 and opinons on which pipe to get..
we ride single track and looking for low end power more than anything
07 mc250 tc2, fww, large pv..

thanks in advance

I have the DEP on my '10 EC250, low end is very good. I have a PV cover to add but haven't put it on yet. I've been looking at Scalvini & Arrow as other options..I had the Gnarly on my previous 2 bikes and low end was good on it as well-1 with PV cover and 1 without. I wouldn't hesitate to use a Gnarly again

If you have the cash and can find it the arrow pipe looks so tucked away, far away from hitting anything, gives it many pluses in my books

get a hold of these folks, they probably can fix your pipe. I have used them and they are very good. My Doma was pancaked pretty bad.

EDIT: I have a FMF gnarly, I noticed it has more bottom end hit than the Doma pipe. But it is not unmanageable.

I do alot of pipe repair myself, and found that the stock GG is made from thicker material than the gnarly + it's sits higher than the Gnarly..

I would also look into repairing the stock pipe, almost anything can be fixed..

The arrow looks really good too, i have seen some of those on husky's they are really tough and sit's well up high..

The Messicos are paper thin (the old ones) But they did also make really good pipes for low end in the same good Handbuild quality as the Arrow's.
