I'm being told from a local source that none of the chips for the LLY are ready for prime time yet, that they all have problems and to wait. Comments please.

I also want to replace my exhaust with a turbo back 4" stainless system. Lots of them out there, does it matter which one?? Does it matter if it's single or dual??

Pyro gauges?? I like BD.

Thanks in advance.

Single or duals is just a looks thing.

Most gauges are of about the same quality or close enough that they will all work fine. Chose again based on looks. I have Dipricol and really like the look and lighting of them. They match stock fairly close and light up very well, the pointers light up with little LED's and everything.

All the pods kinda look janky for mounting gauges. I keep thinking of having a bud of mine that works at a sport compact geared shop do some work on making it look better. Trippins stuff looks really cool but I didnt want my gauges mounted up there.

Some of the chips out were probably released a little premature, but there are a few that are running very strong. The Diablosport Predator has been a solid performer with excellent user feedback and track times. Do a search on it and you will find quite a bit of good info.
As far as exhaust goes check out the MBRP systems. They are also very popular around here and for reason. They are offered in Aluminized, T409, and T304 SS. Check out our website for more info.

bikeme,

DSTRBD is the Edge and the Predator are the most used power products, we also havethe van Aaken that is just out and gaining popularity too for it's extremely smooth power band and low EGT's.

Guages are really a individual thing, chekc them out pick what "look" you like. We have been selling a lot fo the mounts that go over the windshiled rearview mirror, out of the way, easily seen etc.

MBRP is the exhaust of choice they are availible in aluminized, 409 and 304 stainless to fit all budgets and needs etc.
