Thanks for the info Scott, I just mentioned the carbon canisters since I thought everyone interested should know, but in my case I have no problems since got the polished aluminium set. I was a bit disappointed when I got the kit since in my opinion they get cheap on you. You must produce a new set of gaskets to seal the manifolds to the original headers. I had to extract the old ones from the original pipes and install them on the new set. Don't know about performance on your bike, but I'm trying to find the best jetting/filter set-up for my Dynojet Stage 7 Kit. Any input will be much appreciated.
