When it came time for an exhaust for our GSF we wanted a full header back system. I could only think of one company. A company that makes quality parts for Lexus and passes
their racing knowledge to us enthusiast through them. I have not heard an exhaust note that sounds as exotic with the exhaust valve closed or as raspy with the valve open.
Some say it's exotic either way. I tend to agree...










Stay Tuned!!

Am I seeing that right? Three catalytic converters on there? Reminds me of my Mazda RX-7 convertible where they had so many cats on there it choked the heck out of it. Pre cat, another, a main cat then finally the mufflers.
