Default Help me out here, exhaust choices

I have a '91 ZX7, with a D&D full system. This is the sweetest sounding pipe in the world


okay, i know it could use a repack, but i want to do something better soon. I was looking at replacing it with a slipon, but i couldn't find alot of slipon's for my bike. Will any slipon work, as long as the pipe is the right size?

I was looking at about $300 to get a slipon, but figured the whole system could be replaced cuz its old and ugly. It looked like the cheapest FS i could find was about $435. Now this is a 15 year old bike, which i paid 400 bucks for, but ive put in alot of money getting it back to street condition.

Does anyone think it would be worth it to get the full system?

I could always stick the D&D back on if i sold it. Oh yeah, i want either black or carbon

So here are my options:

Slipon:
D&D Black: $271
Micron Carbon: $491


Full Systems:
Muzzy Carbon: $788
Jardine Black: $435
Akrapovic Carbon: $739
D&D Black: $486


The Jardine FS looks like a good deal, but not sure how loud or well built they are. I let my friend ride around the block the other day, and couldn't believe it was a bike making all that noise, this crap is sooooo loud. Thanks for any help!

I didn't see any Hindle pipes for my bike. Also I want to keep the rear pegs so my girl can ride. I was looking at M4 slipons, about $360, but they dont specifically have one for my bike. I found one for the ZX9, and the 636, but not the ZX7.

Can i just mount any slipon onto my bike?

And has anyone had any experience with M4 or Jardine?

Thanks!

edit: its a Muzzy Carbon slipon for the GSX-r750, for $300

I put a Jardine on my wifes bike and we both love it. She isn't concerned about the performance but likes the looks and I love the sound. It is just a little louder than stock at idle but really screams when opened up. Not just loud like D&D, think more like a true race bike.

So can anyone tell me how, if any, universal the slip-ons are?

Would this work? straight from the inlet to my existing mid:

Thanks, and does anyone see that as a really good deal?


edit: hell, even this looks okay, if it would slip right on:
