Also...
Brock's gives great maps and they have awesome customer service. They'll help you as much as they can as far as tuning, etc

It seems everyone here uses Brock pipes.
Does noone use akro's or yoshi's, m4 ,micron etc?
they work the best and the support is the best and the quality is top notch why would you use anything else?

Since you asked about other choices... (keep in mind I am not for or against any aftermarket product...) I have the Stainless full 4into 1 MUZZYS pipe and flies removed. I am extremely happy with it. I was/am not as concerned with a couple more hp and it was less money. They gave me an updated map for the system with flies removed. (Although I am not sure it is necesary to remove flies on an 08... I have an 06.) I am not computer smart so I don't do pictures. Actually I don't even have pictures of my last several bikes. (I wind up missing them when I look at them... ha ha) But any of the pipes out there will give better performance and sound. Get what you like... looks, performance and cost. welcome to the Forum. Look back a few pages and you will see a lot of info on all of the 'updates' that can be done to the bike. it includes pros cons as well as real world numbers.

The collective experience and knowledge of many ZX-14 owners is at your disposal on this site, and Brock is a firm favourite for all reasons given above.
I went the TiForce route originally and it made good power too but I damaged it last August and now I'm having trouble getting a replacement. Looks like I'll be another Brock customer soon, just waiting for the $/£ exchange rate to swing a little in my favour.

BobC,
You have good timing. I just received emails from Brock's on sales on his entire inventory through the end of the year. Your bike would go much faster and look better if you added the BST wheels in place of the lovely bronze Kawi provided us in 2006.

Yeah thats exactley the same as my bike except for the Exhaust and the Oggy knobs.
What trouble did you have with yours?
_______________________________________________________________________
Connecting Rod clip fell off resulting in loss of power, occasional missing, and then a subsequent total thrashing of cylinders 1 & 2.
Even when it did run right I had nowhere near the power I have now.
Not to mention that the Brocks maps were flawless. My only gripe is an occasional decel pop, though it looks cool at night as I see flames shoot out in my mirrors. Even with that, there is no weak spots in the power band, no fading, just an ever-increasing surge of power.

Yes, I got the emails too, there's about 10% off the Black Ceramic Street Meg that I wanted. The BST wheels have been on my wish list for a while, I can source those in the UK but there isn't a UK outlet for Brocks branded products at the moment.
Because of the crazy exchange-rate swing the price to purchase and ship from Ohio to the UK went up by about 25% in the last month. If I hadn't lost weeks being messed around by the company that was ordering the Tiforce system for me from Japan I would have got my order into Brock ahead of the credit crunch, that's why I'm waiting.
