Re: The Exhaust Thread
It's Daishin Racing brand from Japan, many of their mufflers are marked 'DIC'.
Very light aluminium systems.
Edit: Mark beat me to it.

it is just a generic 2 inch can - nothing special about it, not a lot to be said, but fo rme - I'd be spanked by a dutchman if I paid £140 on a can like that.
I'd get a second hand jap system for that money...or any 2 inch can that I fancied.

Re: The Exhaust Thread
Sorry for late reply, didn't get notification!!
TBH I never wanted to cut the exhaust but I know the full system would be expensive so maybe just the end can unless anyone has suggestions to keep it as original as possible but with a raspier sound. I'm slowly getting into the idea of maybe making it look/sound better. I'm reluctantly selling my bmw dakar so it may fund something nice for the VFR!

Re: The Exhaust Thread
I'm currently looking at an exhaust system for sale on Yahoo auctions jp, and I was wondering, if I wanted to buy something like that from there (not sure if I do yet), what would be best way to go about it, and how much would the costs (import charges etc) roughly be for an item of that size?
