any pipe really they dont vary much........ only get a full system if u get a couple engine mods...... otherwise get a slip on.......... to help power here it is in cronilogical order........... jet,pipe,cam,piston, port, oversized valves, new carb............. that is all just my opinion though

Depends on if you are looking for power or top speed ...

For power, a good slip-on exhaust (HMF for example), and a high flow air filter (I recommend K&N) with the proper jetting will give you a good increase in power. If you plan on getting into the engine more, get a full system exhaust and then a cam and then a bore kit if you really want to get more power. Combine a full system exhaust, K&N, Hot Cam Stage 1 or 2, and a JE or Wiseco 10.8 or 11:1 compression 416 or 426 kit and you'll be set. If you really want the torque of a 450R, go with a 440 big bore.

For top speed, all you can do is change your gearing (larger front sprocket), but you'll lose some low-end torque. Besides gearing, a new CDI and/or ignition (Vortex for example) will give you a higher rev limiter and some more miles per hour on top.

Hope this helps guide your thoughts :)
