i just traded my yoshimura full exhaust for another guys stock plus cash.  the one he sent me had the end cut out all the way around, an it sounds just like my yoshi did.  if you would like a picture of what im talking about email me.

The drilled depth is important ... 8-9 inches deep the inner baffle ... punch through that with a 1 inch or so drill bit and you're good ... the real trouble is ... getting that long a drill in that dia ...
Cool.

hey it all depens on how many holes you drill and how big the holes are and to tell you the truth it doesnt sound to bad at all i mean it dosent sound like the 1100 with yoshi on them but it does the trick at least

Mine came w/ the exhaust drilled. I've been happy w/ the sound, dont have n e comparison any power increases. Doubt there would be much of any.

V&H is a great system, well atleast sound wise.  Rust wise it is horrible.
