Default New exhaust for '05 zx6r?? any suggestions??

I just bought my 2005 zx6r and i want to put a new exhaust system on it. I want something that has a pretty clean, loud sound that won't take away any horsepower. Ive heard that two brothers, leo vince, and muzzy would sound good on my bike. Do you guys have any suggestions and what kind of labor am i lookin at? can i do it? or should i take it somewhere>? Also should i do a full exhaust or will a slip on be sufficient? thanks a lot

Installing a full system is easy with basic hand tools and torque numbers. Never did a slip on, but would think thatit would be even easier.

if your just lookin for some sound and just going to be street rideing than i wwould just get a slipon it's alot cheaper and time consuming as well to install, if u get a full system u will need to get a pc rather with a slipon u don't really need 1 but a pc always help

yea, slip on is much easier than full system. plus, if you get a full system you should get it remapped and everything. but theres a company called art industries that makes great pipes. the can can come in different colors too, and it has a deep, throaty sound

The LV, KR Tuned &Yosh RS5 is a good slip-On also. Any of the Slip-On or full exhausts will provide more HP.
