question about exhaust
Hi everyone,im new to the forum and am going to buy a 08 zx14. My question is which full exhaust system people recommend. My friend has a full tsuikgi pipe on his 14 and it sounds pretty good. I was either looking at the tsuikgi or the brocks street meg. I want the one that is going to give me the most power gain,if anyone knows. Thanx for any replies in advance.

Corbin has a peg lowering kit, haven't seen it in person so can't comment on it.

go with brocks street mega, it looks good ,it sounds great( if you like it loud) and with good map you should get around 12 to 15 hp.

Dont get the Corbin Peg lowering kit. Waste of money, even at $60 bucks. I know b/c i made the mistake. Vortex makes some rear-sets and apparently you can move the pegs down a bit. I know Dubious has them, so he would be one person to ask. But becareful. Lowered + lowered pegs = very little ground clearance, especially if you get a passenger.
IMO Brocks new Alien Head the way to go and is the one i would get if i had to do it over again.

ZXripper,I agree with Brocks being the best,had his pipes on my Busa.Kinda expensive but done right.Mine is that Blue and just amazing in the sun but what a bietch to keep clean.Thanks guys,I've read about the Corbin peg kit and thats just Corbins usuall crap.He has some real crafts people making seats but Corbin and his customer service sucks.Thanks, saved me from more of his crap.From what I have seen of the kit I could make it myself. Anyone with an 08 know if the mufflers come off the mid pipes or are they wielded inside??

Mufflers are most likely just like the 06 & 07 in the fact they are welded.
And yes Corbin customer service is some the worse i have come across. I pray i never need my seat worked on.
