MBRP? final verdict?
Hmmm...let's see...the MBRP slip-on offers excellent fit & finish, great low end (which is ALL a DS needs - c'mon, it's already got GREAT top end), it's maintenance-free, it's quiet, it's reasonably priced, and to top it all off, the company provides excellent customer service...yeah, that's a tough call alright!
Problem is I think that it takes away from the top end. I think the top end is worse with that pipe on than with the stock pipe on. If you only ride trails then fine, anything else specially the dunes FUGETABOUTIT!!!!! POS!!!!
And I agree with Ironrod about other pipes having just as good bottom end. The only advantage MBRP has over stock is weight savings.
MBRP would be last on my list, I'd rather run stock.
And just to clarify I only had the first generation slip on. I don't know anything about the race set up.

My top end hasn't suffered one bit! And apparently fit & finish, decibel levels, zero maintenance, and outstanding cutomer service mean nothing to you...gimme a break!
Only thing that matters to me is who gets to the finish line first.[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-cool.gif[/img]
