Default Yoshimura Exhaust

I would like to buy a full exhaust system for my 2003 F4i. I was looking into a Yoshimura system but can't decide which one to get. Yoshi TRS or RS3? Carbon or Titanium? Whats the difference between the two other than the price?

Thanks - Dan

HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL!

RS-3 is oval, TRS is a tri-oval shape (more cornering clearance for those that get that low).Carbon weighs less than Titanium (but Ti is less than stainless). Those are the obvious differences -besides the $$$.
I don't believe power gains vary that much between models and/or materials, but I haven't done extensive research. There's plenty of info out there, keep on searchin' bud.
In the end I think it's going to be personal preference. Ask yourself this: Which shape and which material looks the best onthe bike?

check out akropovick and arata. they make the best pipes for an f4i and it's dyno proven.Yosh is a cheaper pipe though if your pinching pennies

The Yoshi pipe is a staple in the F4I community I think. Everyone has one because of obvious reasons. They look good, they sound good, they add MINIMAL power, and they are reasonably priced.

RS-3 gets my vote. I got a slip on for like $270 shipped

Thanks for all the feedbacks. I guess I can't go wrong on choosing anyone of them. Akropovic is also very nice but way off my budget a bit. Thanks again.
