Exhaust Systems KR-Tuned vs Yosh

Just wondering if anyone here has experience with KR-Tuned exhaust systems. They are a new company and seem to make pretty good exhaust systems. At the shop the other day I compaired their product to a similar Yoshimura system and to me the quality of the KR-Tuned exhaust was just a notch better. Anyone have any experience with this company? Need to make a choice on an after market exhaust since I have owned my 2007 ZX-10r for 2 years with the stock crappy exhaust.

I went with the KR Tuned Full and like it alot. It's not much louder then stock. The quality is top notch the only problem I had with the install was put the canisters into the Y pipe. Here is some pic's.

That exhaust looks pretty sick. I have heard awesome things about them. And I know the dude at SBTG likes them. They claim that they have years of experience on the track. Although I have never looked into this.

Oh.. and on the full system. Good luck. 2WW

KR-Tuned Exhaust System

Hey thanks for the reply and the pics. I want to get the full system but will prolly just settle for the slip on. I did see on the zx.net forum where you can remove something from the canister which makes the exhaust louder. Let me know if you found this to be true.

I seen this the other day http://www.mawonline.com/newsite/kr_tuned-exhausts.htm has the full system w/TI muffler for $789 shows it available.

It did come with baffle end tips but I never used them. From what I have read KR Tuned is a rebadged Arrow Exhaust. After looking into it I have to agree.

Here is a full exhaust ride by sound clip. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ld_Io2m7vBM

wait!

I put a Area P on my street 10r that i was very happy with. It came with the catalytic converter sub pipe which is hollow of course. And then it went to one single carbon fiber 2" muffler. Love the sound and it rips. BUT on my track bike I was trying to save money, so I took the stock exhaust and drilled out the rivets on the end, gutted the outside can, and then cut off about 2". I then made my own (but you an buy a Vance and Hines) straight through inserts wraped with glass. It sounds good and has no baffle so its free flowing. I was even thinking of bolting back up to the street bike to see how it compares. Of course I hollowed out the cat and disconected the exhaust valve too, but thats a cheap way to go. Check it out.
