Found a new header on eBay for $299 so I said what the heck and bought the muffler. I would never pay $1,500 for an exhaust but at $899 all in, I couldn't resist.

Looks Fresh!!!!
Any noticeable power difference? -BIG DAN
Is it louder?Thanks man! Haven't had it on the dirt since instal. Sounds oh so good tho.
It actually sounds very similar to stock with it being a slight bit deeper. I had an FMF slip on that was all kinds of loud.Is it louder?
I have always run FMF on all bikes however I have wanted an akrapovic system for some time. The price was right so I jumped in. I can tell you that the Akra header, mid-pipe and muffler are a piece of art. The build quality is in a different ballpark over the FMF titanium systems.I have always liked most of the products I have used from FMF, but it seems pretty universal that their race pipes are louder than the stockers by a noticeable amount. 4 strokes already face a noise handicap compared to their typically smaller 2 stroke counterparts. (The rest of the physics involved in that are interesting.)
If the aforementioned tape doesn't do the trick, I would take the kicker to a grinding wheel and "gain some headroom." -BIG DANAny ideas?
