I know, I know there have been quite literally hundreds of questions about exhausts on here, but mine is very particular. Has anyone ridden both & if so what are the characteristics of each? I have an 02' Blaze so I know the FMF, but have never ridden anything w/an HMF. I just recently sold a Bills slip-on from my 03' Speed and put my FT Performance slip-on back on it. This os the exhaust I'm looking to replace w/a full system. Any expertise and/or opinons are always welcome and appreciated!
The '03 stock header is just as good as the HMF header, and even better since you already have one -- I was able to adapt and fit HMF silencers on the '03 header, and I think Haydug still offering the conversion -- best exhaust option for the money, no doubt.
Nothing wrong with the Bill's pipe, I just sold it because I have 4 exhausts and 2 quads. I originally had my FT slip on on my Speed but got a lot of dirty looks at Pismo from the rangers. So I bought the Bill's & it worked just as well and was a lot quieter to boot. I'm just looking to get the most power out of my rebuild of the Speed & was looking into a full system. DOn't worry-you will be fully satisfied with the Bill's, the trick billet mount alone is worth it!
I'll tell you what really feels like a kick in the pants is the TC/FT on an '03 header or the titanium FMF header. The HMF don't seem to work as well as what I thought.
