depends on what you'll be using the bike for.
f/s saves weight and gives the bike more power, but you'll never reap the benefits of it unless you're on the track or riding hardcore canyon as the gains are all up top in the high mid and high rpm range. downside is that it leaves your wallet light and your lowend will suffer...and you'll feel the difference.
so...for the street and stuff, i'd go with a slip on...tiny power increase but better than stock...and doesn't leave your bottom end sloppy.

+1 on that. i have a slip on as well. of course i would love to reap the benefits of having a full set up...but realistically....i will never push it to use its full potential in any circumstance. on top of that...i'm content with how hard my bike pushes. now...if your a real performance/speed junkie (more so then the usual on this forum)...then i would say go spring for the full system...but i'd rather save the extra $$$. just my .02
