Leo Vince Cat Delete pipe
Has anyone had any success with using the Leo Vince cat delete pipe in conjunction with a different brand of muffler. I don't like the Leo Vince muffler at all, but their cat delete pipe is a must. Would this work with something like an Akrapovic muffler?

I don't see why it wouldn't, it has been proven to work well with the stock OEM twin tips so if a LV muffler works well in my opinion anything will too.
Some fine tuning might be needed though.

Really? I saw on motovationusa.com's website the LeoVince cat delete specifically says it won't work with OEM slip on. If it works with stock, it must work with other aftermarket mufflers.

LaRossa is correct. A few here have experimented with different cans on the various mid-pipes all with success (fitment). In case you're wondering, the end pipe (of the mid-pipes) is 53.8mm (od I believe).

I contacted LeoVince directly to confirm this. This is the response I received.
"All our link pipes are compatible with stock silencers." Which in turn, makes them compatible with silencers that will fit stock link pipes.
Hope that helps.
