I was curious as to whether anyone's ever thrown a set of r6 headers onto the fz6. The stock exhaust on an 08 has two catalytics, restricting flow and creating way too much heat. I know arrow makes a cat replacement pipe, which I'll be picking up for next season, but no one is making a set of headers. Since the basic block is the same, a set of r6 pipes should match up, and with minimal modding be made to fit to the fz6 while maintaining the stock undertails, right?

With this assumption, any ideas on which header would best mate to the fz? I've got no problem doing alittle bit of custom fabbing, but would like to minimize my welding

Suggestions on headers? I've got a set of 2 bros slips at the moment. I figure Arrow Midpipe, maybe arrow (03-04 r6) headers or even two bros?
