OK... I have the Yosh RS-3 slip-on and I'm ready for a full system, maybe a Akropovic. Any advice from ANYONE who has an aftermarket pipe or opinions would be awesome. Also, what's the loudest pipe any of you guys ever came across?

 

Not sure. A lot of people do not bother with the full system on the F4i. Even with a power commander and custom map, you will only gain a few HP up on top, while you will lose some power in the mid-range. In my mind it is not worth it unless you are racing and constantly have the engine above 10,000rpm and need that extra 3-4hp...

 

you shouldnt be concerned about best sound with your switching to a full system. if thats your only concern you should just switch to another slip-on.

with that said, anything except for two brothers. thats my opinion. wait a minute, two brothers doesnt even make a full system. lol.

 

LoL... true. I wanted to replace my ugly stock headers with nice shiny stainless ones. I love those big 4 strands of spaghetti hanging down from the engine. Speaking of 2 Bros, my brother and I just installed a Two-Brothers exhaust system on his Ninja 250. It totaly sounds macho. LoL. DEEP and THROATY. If I was to walk up and here that 250 running I'd swear it was MUCH larger in displacement. But yeah, I guess I should just go with a new slip-on, how about Leo Vince? What's the word on those guys? I want something DEEEEEEEEEP and not whiny. You know, sounding like a "ricerboy" Civic with an exhaust tip from a Peterbilt and a wing stolen from a Le Mans prototype race car.

 

I have had a Yoshi TRS, Two Bros M2 and now an Ixil Xtrem Shorty slipon. They all sounded AWESOME, but the Ixil is the best so far of the 3.

 

my akro is great but it's not loud by anymeans compared to other exhausts but it's a great pipe

 

I've read posts stating that D&D pipes are loud compared to most others.

 

Yeah, I've read that D&D sounds really loud (almost to the point of discomfort). I also heard that the quallity of there products are under par. IMHO, I don't really care for the look of the pipes and that big Texas flag on the side of the canister just looks out of place on a Japanese sport-bike.

 

I heard the same about DD pipes. Obnoxiously loud and sub-par quality.

Most people i talk to told me to go with Yoshi or Twos Brohers

 

Are you not happy with the sound of your RS3 or what?
