They are nicely resonated test pipes that may take advantage of some cleverly sorted harmonics to make a bit more power than regular TP's -- I have seen a few dynos that indicate this.

HOWEVER, they are pretty pricey. If you can pick up a set at a very good deal, I think it's an upgrade from regular resonated TP's.

On the other hand, if you don't care about rasp (and possibly running to the hardware store to find matching nuts and bolts...) and just want power, a set of ebay test pipes is pretty high on the bang-for-the-buck list.
