Anything is going to have better flow than the stocker.
The only concern is the physical size of the muffler.

And from memory both are just as heavy as the stock as well.

My TL1000 muffler and Phreaky Phil midpipe combined were 800 grams lighter than stock, so not a lot in it weight wise.

Well Eddie, now what do I do? Just bought a TL1000 muffler for $5.50 off trade me I guess I now have to look at a mid pipe and then see how it all fits together....It sure was cheap! Road and Sport had it, so will pick it up in due course.

Good score. I'm unsure how it'll work, but for $5.50, who cares if it doesn't.

If it don't look like it is going to be a gain, then it is yours Dino After-all a 800 gram weight saving? Is it worth it? I just need to open it up, have a motorbike sound rather than a wet fart...Hey, I will even deliver it....

Don't go drilling holes in the stocker, it sounds like shit.

My TL pipe felt like it gave more bottom and mid range, no difference in the top end. It also made the bike sound a lot better.
