I doubt it. The oil pan and bolts holding the oil cooler lines stick down far enough that they interfere with the headers. The guy who said he had a V&H on his '04 also said that he had to do a little work to get it to fit.

Again, Alpha is right...
(I'm sick of saying this...)

There are no exhaust systems for the f models yet besides the stock.  In order to change cans, you need to do some customizing   (cutting, welding, whatever)

I've seen an F model with the V&H system. I didn't ask if there was any trouble with the install but I've seen it done.

Yeah, you've seen the same one I have. It does take some work, though; same thing happened with my Yoshimura full system I bought.
