Is that whole USB drive thingie Termi exclusive?Akra isn't saying what you need to do to maximize their pipe, right? So you would be on your own with PCV or RB I am guessing. In the old days, we just swapped out 4 jets, looked at the plugs

No idea. But one one think they would be similar, but I can't imagine Akra saying that their pipe has the same fueling requirements as the Termi, that would imply similar perfomance. Which if true, you are paying (same price now) for the look/weight over a Termi.
Tuning with a Baz/Rapid/PCV on a dyno is on top of the upmap(s), not a replacement.
No what I meant by that was, will Akra offer a USB drive w/map along with their systems like Termi does. It would be super if it did.
I believe one of the super Ducati tuners is working on a map for this particular exhaust. Not sure about the exact status but you may want to get the map that they come up with for the Akrapovic exhaust as they do a lot of the tuning that you're seeing from dealers these days.
Aside from the expected lack of full performance potential from getting an exaust that doesnt come with a map and won't be dyno'ed and tuned, are there any other con's to know about? This being for a pani that may never see a track. City and country riding99% of the time.

Forgive my ignorance as I say the following. Tuning with a Baz/Rapid/PCV on a dyno and updating UpMaps, does one cancel the other out or how does that work? Does the piggyback map stay unchanged forever or what?
Good deal, thank you. So Rexxer would be a better option than Rapidbike and etc.Updates the ECU. A bit different from using a fuel module as the update effects the driveability range (0-4000 rpm) where a fuel module cannot. Also compensates for exhaust flapper valve and charcoal canister removal.
If you update your ECU with an upmap of any kind you will need to readjust your fuel controller, whether it be bazzaz, PCV, etc. in order to gain maximum performance. Usually if you have your ECU flashed properly, dyno tuned and restrictions removed, there is no need for a fuel controller as the ECU serves the same function. ECU is really the "brains" of the bike. A fuel controller is nothing more than giving your "brain" a drug to modify one area of it (Air/Fuel Ratio)

I want this exhaust. Can anyone find a place with it in stock?
I have a Panigale with full Akrapovic system on the dyno at the moment.
I am making a custom TuneBoy map for this as I think the Akrapovic system will be popular once people see the results.
I was a little sceptical of the dyno graph posted at the start of this thread.
The bike I have on the dyno has very good performance in the midrange.
I will post the dyno results when I am done.
I will post the graphs showing power delivery at several points through the throttle range.
I don't have before runs for this bike because I aborted the run when the A/F ratio hit 16/1 on the first power run.
I do have a dyno graph of the AR exhaust and I will post the tuned AR system and tuned Akrapovic system as a comparison.
I am also fitting a strain gauge quick shift to this bike, this adds the throttle blip on down shifts.
