Yoshi slip on's with V&H headers?

[raceworx]

I was wondering if anyone would know if the V&H headers would work with yoshi slip-ons?

these headers... PERFORMANCE HEAD PIPES: Vance & Hines: Performance Exhaust Systems

these slip-on's.... Yoshimura R&D - R-77 Stainless/Stainless Slip-On Dual - Carbon End-cap

i want to keep dual mufflers... look vs performance.

any feedback would be great

Several members including myself have the same setup! Any slip on exhaust works with it!

ok great thanks...

This is exactly what I am going for as well. I have the yoshimura r77 slip ons in carbon and they sound great. I am just waiting for my logbox to arrive so I can keep an eye on ratios and tune for the full system. Any experience with tuning for this setup? I imagine the r77 with these pipes minus the street baffles are pretty loud. Not that this is a problem.

Vance and Hines headers will work with any slip on that will fit the year busa you have the headers for. I have Vance and Hines headers with a Brock's alien head exhaust.

I am assuming that the 08-09 headers linked above fit the 12 as well (any gen2?)? I suppose I could ask V&H but you guys actually use these parts and probably know more about them.

I have R-77 CF s/o (WITHOUT the quiet inserts) with V&H headers and IMHO, these are NOT loud at all

The V&H 08-09 headers will fit any busa 1999-2012. I have an 08-09 headers on my 2005 busa.

Gen 2 stock headers weigh 16 lbs while the V&H are 8 lbs

Oem vs. V&H. Like kromdom said. Is a big weight difference.

Damm, this needs to be my next mod. Does it help any with hp or tq? Noticeable?

SOTP (Seat Of The Pants) dyno says YES but at best, marginal. Biggest plus is the WEIGHT reduction achieved,

I just got a Yoshi to mate to my unknown Ti headers (4-2-1)
