Bartish....the difference in price between the two is the biggest factor. Second, I think you're going to have a hard time trying to find someone who has a used ProPipe that is wanting a set of used stock exhaust in trade.

You can sure put your offer out there, but you might be waiting a long time on a ProPipe.

Just my 2 cents....

Regards....greeny

OEM pipes are a dime a dozen. At one time folks could barely give them away as shipping was expensive.

I suspect the same is still true.

I have a virgin set of OEM's in my garage that would love a home but zero takers. Might be able to use them for an anchor or something.

I have a set that looks brand new and won't even try to sell them. The shipping is more than the pipes are worth and you can find them a dime a dozen on e-bay. I might sell mine at the scrap metal place I would get more mone as they a HEAVY!

Fair trade... that depends. But if someone is willing to trade their 2-1 Propipes for stock, I guess its fair. Bottom line, if any two parties agree on anything then its fair no matter what anyone else says. One mans trash is another mans treasure.

Re:would this be a fare trade? 1 Year, 10 Months ago  
heard that same story about trading up to a car from a cell phone

pretty slick !

stock pipes are not worth much ..and easily available
if soem one wanted to trade a set of pro pipes for a set I had in the garage...id do it .....you never know when you might want the pro pipe for a project
and like mentioned you can always find stock pipes
