Sounds like your happy that's all that matters. But do have any issues with the system being so light and having all those springs with noise. My micron system only has 4 springs on the whole system. The Akrapovic system that's on my GSXR 1000 is hydra formed also with very few welds and springs. Believe me there is nothing wrong with the torque curve on either one there's no dips what so ever. Lets put it this way you have to be down right crazy to pass either one of them if I don't want you to. Your boy Scottjkyl is crazy! I can tell. I like that.
