ok im ready to order a slip on for my 06. i was going to get the jardine rt-1 in carbon fiber with the dual barrel look but then i heard that it isnt a good exhaust. i also really like the yoshi rs-5 but is it a good part? i dont know. i am kinda just looking for opinions on what to get. so if you wouldnt mind, just give me a little input because im confused.

Every five weeks I get an 8 day swing from work.I am all cought up on the house work so I hang out here.So listen I also am looking for a pipe.Either laser extreme or the new Jardine.Just from looking at the pictures I like the Laser but It might be a little to much of a bad ass look and it is bad ass.I was thinking of the Jardine because it looks to fit neatly under the tail and laid back.Just not sure how I want to go yet.

I have an Yosi installed and love it. I did some research and found out the this brand works well with Honda. It's Carbon Fiber... which I like and the sound is great. I believe the power increase is between 3-5 ponies. I think the look and sound is more of a factor for me. The Machine is loaded with enough power...but of course a couple of more horse wouldn't hurt.

Check mine out here
Also, check out my small movie clip to hear the sound. Click here

Yosh is very popular right now, but good luck getting your hands on one. Mine has been back ordered for almost 6 weeks now.

Installing it was difficult - at first - because I'm a dumbass. After a while... it all worked out. I did modify the bracket that holds up the pipe... but everything else was find. It was worth all the pain and suffering. LOL

For the record... my pipe was also on back order for several weeks. And I'm not sure about the fit on an '06 model.

I just called Parts Unlimited and it will fit the 06 and they will have it in about a week. thats what they said at least. so do you really think this is the exhaust to get. and that damn carbon end cap is like an extra $50 haha.
