Default Fuel Moto Ceramic Headpipe

Anyone put a Jackpot Ceramic pipe on a stock 96 or 103 with out any other mods ?
Temp drop with out any air flow difference or fuel mgmt?
Did it work good? Happy with it?
I had V&H Monster Ovals on but they gave me a head ache on long rides, I guess I am getting older and perfer the quiet stock muffler. If I keep the bike stock and just remove the cat , the OEM Delco Module will adapt enought and I should be ok as I see it. Wondering if others has just stopped at the pipe only , and how did it do.

With no other changes, the only temp drop you are going to see is the radiant heat comming off the catalyst area by your right foot, this you can achieve by removing the cat from your OEM pipe. Without adding fuel, you definately will not see a decrease in CHTs or oil temp. If you have no plans of further performance mods, the FM headpipe would be a waste of money. Also a catless pipe will make your OEM mufflers a bit louder which is opposite the direction you are headed. You have already convinced yourself that the ECM can accomdate the headpipe change with no problem, so thats not an issue for you. Now you just need to define what what source of heat you are concerned with, prioritize the heat and noise, and then revisit the many different approaches to mitigate them.
