what do you guys recommend for a good mx exhaust? right now i have an hmf full system but i know the tc is a really good pipe and i like how they look and sound. would it be worth selling the hmf and getting a tc? noise is no problem the bike is used strictly for mx. thanks.

I'm now a firm believer in the TC exhaust for MX racing. IMO it pulls harder than the HMF on the bottom and mid-range.

does it require a different map than the hmf? i have heard it does. i really like my moto/speed map.

No, not really. I have a variation of a Moto map in ours right now. You can still run the Moto/Speed map if you want.

oh ok thanks. one more question. i know the tc is a slip on right? what headpipe does it require. i have the hmf full system. right now could i use the hmf headpipe or do i need stock cannondale headpipe from one of the older bikes??

It's a slip-on. I believe you can use the HMF headpipe, I think it's the same as the 2002 Cannibal. The headpipe that mates to the round silencer is the one you need.

my cannibal is an 02 but im not sure what muffler it came with i bought the bike brand new set up for mx and it already had the hmf system on it

Yep, the HMF headpipe will work. I sold one to a guy that is using this setup, and verified it. Should be good to go for ya!
