need help slips or full

Unless you are a very serious rider who has the talent to ride a superbike to its limits then then the slip-ons should be ample, they sound and look great, the bike is more rideable than with the stock pipes.

As of now i can only buy termis so thats the question. No offense AR as of now i cant get anything from you. IF YOU A CONSUMER WERE IN A DUCATI STORE WOULD YOU GET FULL SYSTEM OR SLIPS. Thats it i dont care about ar akra arrow or any other manufacturer out there. why? cause as of today 10/10/12 i can only buy TERMIS.

I have answered this, in dyno tests the slip ons out perform the Termi headers, save your money.
 
I prefer the full system. It gets rid of the CAT Converter which will reduce some of the heat and increase power and most of all it reduce weight. But you can always start off with the slip on and if you want to get the headers down the road you can.

I dont know how the slip on produce better power with that CAT installed. It amazes me how people believe that unless the bike is shipped different in terms of what type of CAT installed/Stock Up Maps than what they ship to California. I know we have tough emission laws here but come on a bike with a CAT produce more power than a bike without a CAT, 20MM larger headers for more air flow and reduced back pressure with the same silencers? Im sure super stock will be adding that CAT back on next year. :D
 
year one yes you have answered it and thank you for your input. In my rant i wasnt referring to the people who actually answered the question.

Rich22, Scrapper makes a very good point. Any thoughts?
 
See page 58 of the parts manual (the US one, anyway); CATs are in the cans on the Pani. Slips = no mo CATs.
 
The cats are in the stock silencers.

The best option for the pani at this moment in time is the stock headers with slip on cans and a rapidbike module.

We have shown this on 6 bikes on our dyno. Millsport the official Ducati road race team have independently shown this on an independent dyno. Rapid bike have shown this on there testing facility dyno.

All independent 3rd party tests nothing to do with AR.

Hope this helps your choice (for fear of getting shot down in flames and accused of trying to freeze the market prior to our system release)!
