Default Akrapovic Exhaust

Just wondering if anyone ended up trying one of these systems (Evolution Full or Sports Cup)? Other than cost, the issue I see is the big torque drop in lower RPM ranges (see dyno charts on website) and fact that it would likely void warranty.

I've been considering getting the Sports Cup version. I am in an emissions region and don't know if the 100 cell cats would pass with the full system.

Do the 100 cell cats scrub less than the standard cats?

I would assume significantly less.

I've owned many akro pipes for my various bikes. Have a full titanium evolution system on my gsxr right now. Fantastic pipes, extremely well made (the welding work is exquisite), and have real performance. If they produce a car pipe that's even in the same league as their bike pipes, i say go for it.
