Asado--

Looks/sounds good!  I'd love to get a custom setup with one of those pipes on my S4RS.  What happened to the homemade shorty you had on there previously?

It's been pretty interesting watching your evolution of bikes/mods.  I remember discussing S4RS' with you a few years back as we got our bikes about the same time from the same dealer.  I've still got my RS, though.  I've been really impressed with every bike you've modded and displayed here on this forum.  Good taste!  [thumbsup]  [beer]

SO much better than the stock cans! Was there any new mapping necessary?

God damn thats a huge slip on

Yes.. It is massive

What happened to the custom shorty you made? I liked that look much better.

Its about the same length as the stock cans.  I still have the shorty.

I like the look of the dual cans and the shorty... The one giant can looks strange to me, I would prefer too smaller cans or go with the shorty

Any differences between the three as far as performance/feel?

So you took the shorty off. I liked the Leo in the beginning, but not any more. It just reminds me of those long slip-ons from the 90's

I still have the MGP shorty.  I have two, one is for sale.

I didnt like the Leo at first but I took a chance, looks better in person.

This is what I'm looking for. Until then, I'll either paint the stock pipes or do an inexpensive route like the shorty. Hows it run with the shorty compared to the shorty?

The stock exhaust is restrictive and very heavy.  One thing I noticed with either the MGP shorty and Leo is a better throttle response.  I can switch back to the Leo, MGP and stock in less than 10 minutes.  Buy my spare MGP for a good price, its in the classifieds. [thumbsup]

So usually when you put an exhaust on and don't reflash the ecu and no map they usually run worse (lean) then stock? What have you done, also did you leave the exhaust servo on with that shorty?

Runs fine to me with the stock mapping.  I am planning on getting my ECU reflashed along with the MWR filter in a week or two. 

The MGP is a slip on after the servo, easy on, easy off.
