never give tools to an engineer....
to be honest, the exhaust itself is really not that pretty under the covers.
a man's gotta do, well you know the rest.
just went to the welder today. end of next week when i'm back from chicago.
This reminds me of Shervin's exhaust.

You just cost me a lot of time reading the links to the zx10r forums in that article and Shervin's posts. Wow, that was a good laugh.
PS - that forum is a mess...
They do add decent midrange numbers compared to what else is out there. Look up the charts on the various threads posted in the forum.
Personal reasons I bought them, may not apply to you:
1) Cheapest, by far - the price is negotiable with your dealer.
3) Free upmap from Ducati, and free access to upgraded maps as Ducati releases them
4) Mid-range power/torque increase. Depending on the dyno chart you look at, it produces more midrange "usable-to-me" power than a certain other system costing around $4k. I don't care as much about the extra few ponies at 11,500 rpm, as i don't stay at that rev level too much street riding, I'd rather have the mid-range
6) Sound is deeper and a slightly better quality sound than stock, albeit not that much louder
7) Weight savings over stock
So yeah... to me, it was absolutely worth it.

Haha! One of the biggest clusterfucks of 2010!
Completely agree. $1,600 including the DP ECU....more than worth the price in my opinion. Perfect for my riding needs, no hassle, and zero drama.
