besides the price... what is the difference in having a full aftermarket exhaust compared to a slip on?
is it really worth spending the extra money because it is a signifcant amount of money?

full exhaust
pros - more power, lighter then stock, sounds better
cons - more expensive, remap/rejet

slip on
pros - sounds better, no need to remap/rejet, cheaper
cons - no power gains

It depends on what you want. For improved sound only, get a slip on. For improved sound and performance, get a full exhaust. The full exhaust can add a few hp. Not anything noticeable on the street. But, with a full exhaust, you should also get a high flow air filter(eg, K&N) because of the increased flow of a full exhaust system and a power commander. Then, you should also get the power commander mapped to take full advantage of the high flow air filter and full exhaust system.

unless you plan on racing (or if you just want the most hp) i would recommend a slip-on. full systems do make more power. that's a fact. but the power gains on the slip-ons verses the full system is up for debate. if you are after the look and the sound, slip-on is the way to go. and the money saved will buy other parts that you want. just my opinions.

Slip ons will add power, but only in the range of 2-5 hp. A Full exhaust a little more, but your power increase will be in the mid to upper rpm range.

I have a 3/4 Devil exhaust with a power commander and OEM filter, my 01 929 and it made 136 rwhp.

I ride only on the street. However, I would love to be near a track. Anyway, the answers I recieved were pretty much what I expected. Thanks for the quick replies. I guess I'll just have to get the slip on setup.

The hp difference between the two is usually only 2 hp more or so.

hey Calkidd do you have any problems with people ridding on the back of your 929 with the high mount exhaust? does your girl ever bitch about burning her leg? etc..

No, the can is carbon fiber so it runs a little cooler than a metal one. But since it on the right side and she gets off the to the left there really has never had a problem with her leg touching the can.

When it comes to the difference in the slip-on to the full race is, it isnt a huge difference. Obviously, hte full system is better if you want to be a full time trackie, however it is not really usefull for the daily rider because of the difference it makes (which is mid to upper range). The slip on however, is the more road type because it affects the lower, however the main reason for (at least for me) was a better performing more throatier sound than that of stock. And that is exactly what i got when i did the install of my Yosh can. If you want a lot of gain out of a pipe though, your best bet is to go with Akrpovic. That is just pure power and above the rest for that.

what was the last thing you said? something about akra...
oh wait...i run an akra! and you're totally right about the gains.
lowend and mid, sloppy...gotta counter that with gear change...upper RPM...SCREAM, PULL, etc.
