Between 3 different machinists, getting sick, and a 2 week vacation (that spiriled into a 3.5 week on), the megaphone exhaust is finally done. 

LOTS of fab work went into the cans themselves.  Bought rolled cans that were welded, didn't like the weld, cut, re-welded.  Made baffle, it might as well have not been there.  Made another baffle, a bit better.  Made a third baffle....OK, now they are tolerable.
Had the mounting points machined, ordered Ti bolts, powdercoated the bracket, and whala.  It's a full termi system with the cans replaced by megs.  If I had time to dyno test it I would.  Still powers up in 2nd gear and gets light in 3rd (I'm 235lbs) like it did with the termi cans, so I'd suspect at least no power loss.  Hard to tell up top, the thing is hauling ass and it's dark.

Enjoy, I hope the new owner will Smiley  Forgot to add......these are for a bike without a tail chop, so they should look more at home on a bike with the fender, plate bracket, etc..

Looks nice, although for me, I would like to see the cans a little closer together. Maybe the lower can 1/2" up, but that's just me being picky...

Awesome look.  +1 on the sound clip.  A picture from the side would be nice too.  They look a lot like Doug Cook's ArcFab pipes before he disappeared.

I can only wish to be in a tunnel along side that THING!
I'm sure the video camera audio does not do it justice, but definitely gives it the baseline insanity score of a +11 on a scale of one to ten.

Great work Theo... and what a perfect neighborhood to experiment in!

Thanks for the compliments!

It's got the DP ECU from the termi system on it now. 

Curious, why would it matter?

Because without the DP ECU it would be ridiculously lean...
