Try the Big Gun with the silent insert. Should be an improvement over stock and keep you around 90db.

is the big gun a full exhasut or a slip on?

Kory Ellis runs a "bills Pipes" exhaust on his, dont know anything about it or the numbers, but have seen it in the magazines.

I don't have a silent insert in mine, but the power gain over stock was unbelieveable. It's only a slip on. Alot of more power in the low to mid range, and minimal gain on top. I was running the Blaze Map with the Big Gun, I know have the stock pipe on with the Cannibal mapping, while I wait for another pipe. I also got re-ended in my last race, and the pipe cracked. Big Gun is sending me a new one for free, so I can't complain.

But, Yes, I noticed a huge improvement over stock. The bike felt alot better all over, but mostly in the bottom to mid range. Which the Blaze mapping also helped out. Check out my Yahoo pics for fit and finish on it.

I also have a FX 400 dyno chart in there with the Big Gun slip on.

I have the Trinity stage 4 and love it. Its is kinda loud but not as loud as the big gun on a raptor. but it is hard to compare a big gun on a big motor like araptor with a S4 on a high reving dale. It looks sweet and has a great bracket. Trinity has a full system going for $419.99 and is a steal for what you will get.
