So I am thinking about picking up some Ferracci Forza Carbon low mount slip ons.  After doing some research on here I think these are just rebadged Sil Motos or another company.  Does anyone know the specifics on this?  Just noticed that these might be Forza exhaust.  Does any one have any opinions on this brand?

I curious of the sound these will produce and if I will need to do any tuning plus any power gains there might be or if I can get more power out of them buy getting the rest for a full system later?

Lastly, these are low mounts.  Is there any way for me to change them to high mounts?  I'm sure that I will have to buy some new parts but is it possible at all?

Bike= 02 620

Yeah FBF cans are just re badged products by someone else.  Currently it's Forza.  In the past Sil... FBF doesn't manufacture exhaust parts. I've never heard anyone complain about Forza. They don't have a market share as big as Termi or Arrow, but then seem to put out a good product.

I curious of the sound these will produce and if I will need to do any tuning plus any power gains there might be or if I can get more power out of them buy getting the rest for a full system later?
Louder... They will probably sound a lot like Termi or Sil low slip ons.  Get out on google, there's a site someplace that had sound clips of various exhausts on Monsters.  IF you just to the slip ons, you'll gain some power.  Whether you'll really be able to feel it.. hard to say.  But generally when people un-cork their exhausts, they note a feeling that the engine feels 'more free' or 'less restricted'.

Full system?  Are you talking spaghetti headers?  If you are, those are going to be costy and hard to come by.  If you're talking air filter and tuning - that's (relatively easy).  Just remeber that if you add air to the fix with a higher CFM filter, you'll need a way to add more fuel to the mix. 

I don't know if the do it anymore - but FBF did sell kits, that had slip-ons, a cotton gauze filter and a pre mapped Power Commander.  Just pick the model of your bike and then it was a 99% plug and play operation.  IT mostly skipped the nasty step of going to a dyno.  Now the map wasn't 100% perfect, since it was precanned - but worked pretty well.  My former 620 had one of those kit set ups and ran quite well.


Lastly, these are low mounts.  Is there any way for me to change them to high mounts?  I'm sure that I will have to buy some new parts but is it possible at all?

You a welder/Fabricator?  IF so, sure - not problem.  If not.. it's possible but you'd spend more money than if you jsut sold the low mounts and bought some highmounts

Thanks Yuu, I was pm'ing you when you were posting.

These are a pretty good price so I am wondering what parts it should take to change from low mount to high mount.  Should just be the mid pipes, brackets for high mount and clamps right?  I can weld but not anywhere near the skill at which I would need to do this. 

Yes I meant tuning later (already have a high flow air filter).  Power comander is probably the route I will go.  Trying to spread out the cash flows though.

just as a consideration, the slip-ons w/stock intake ran fine on my 620.

chopped the lid + BMC filter started giving me problems until I sorted the fuelling, etc.

I'd wait on the intake stuff until you've got the PCIII
