I've been researching this week, and the three main options available are..


1) the Vance and Hines full system, a lot of members in here have them, apparently they sound decent, but have rust issues, and you have to loosen or remove them to change your oil filter.

2) the Jardine full system... pricier, but no removal for oil filter needed. one member in here apparently complained of a 'tinny' sound, but I can't find who or when. Also harder to find

3) Srinath's making a flange for members to attach a Wileyco slip on can to their existing headpipe. This is the least expensive option, but will require a little more mechanical ability from you. Apparently the sound is decent, and the finished one's I've seen look pretty good.

I haven't made my decision yet. I'm waiting til monday, cause I'm checking availability on the Jardine system (called tonight, but they asked me to call back monday) I will repost with any added info on that.
