which Termi to go with??

[hypernewbie]

Hello all, this is my first post and happy to have found all you nut jobs!! i just bought an S a few days ago - kinda of on a whim after hearing about it how cool they are and just plain being out of it for too long - last had an R1 four yrs ago. my question is regarding the Termi systems out there... i have spent some time searching on this forum for info on which system is preferred 2-1 or 2-1-2 - which is a matter of taste - looks, performance, costs, etc.

performance/hp gains are, i guess, my number one priority (2-1????). and a distant second priority is if i could stay with the stock look of the high exhaust exit. i did read that maybe the 2-1-2 with some sort of cat replacement is just as strong and still retains the high exhaust look - is that true??? i know that the race 2-1 comes with the ecu - would that need to be sourced separately if using the 2-1-2 option?

i know that there are other options with other companies, but i would like to stick with Termi. thanks - oh, and i absolutely love the bike (300mi so far). thanks -

If you want performance the 2-1 is hands down the best choice. Also, I think it looks much better than the undertail exhaust but that's a matter of preference.

When I put the 2-1 on my bike I could not believe the difference, the response is smooth and crisp and the power is noticeable. The sound is unreal, I have yet to hear a bike that sounds better and I've heard quite a few

Make sure and shop around, the prices tend to vary on them.

Congrats and welcome!

I got the same set up as Chris...

+1, 2:1. Less weight, and it tastes great!

I don't have an answer to your questions. However, if you do decide to go for the Termis 2-1 Full System with ECU, I might have a brand new one in a couple of days.

By the way, it is not 2-1-2. It is 2-1-1. The can on the left side is a dead can just like the oem. It is for symmetrical looks.

I did the 2-1-2. It is a pricey system but I gained about 6 hp and 5 lb ft. I think its very similar in gains to the 2-1, except its another $700 or so

If your goal is performance orientated then the Full System is the way to go IMHO. You get the best weight savings and power increase from a plug and play stand point. There are other ways to go about getting the power increase too but takes a little more creativity with exhaust mods such as buying the particular exhaust then the cat converter, airbox kit and finding a performance ECU etc. Some folks on here have went with Leo Vince and then pieced it together finding the other parts needed to get a performance gain saving some cash compared to the Termi but if you look around you should be able to get a Full System for around $1900-$2100. Its crazy expensive for sure when talking about an exhaust but worth it if you ask me. Here it my dyno with full Termi kit.
