    Has anyone done this yet as my Yoshi which is just over year old does seem to be getting louder ,on my noise test today at Oulton park it only just passed it is normally 101db but they allowed it through I think it was just over 102db it was warmed up to operating temperature before I had it done .

    Can't believe a year old exhaust needs this but I have done quite a few trackdays this year not sure what the normal wear/tear is .

    Stainless?
    Titainium?

    Full system?

    Combination of above?

    It's a carbon end cap just looked on YouTube and found a yoshi video interesting thing was they advise the following

    7000-10000miles for street exhaust and 10-15 hours of offroad(track/race)

    It looks pretty straight forward once you drill out rivets but has anyone else needed to do it yet ?
