Look at my sig pic. Just put them on a couple weeks ago and bought them from the same seller. My bike is completely stock otherwise. I don't have xeid's or pcv or anything like that and it ran fine. I did have to put baffles in though because I lost a boatload of torque after I put them in. Bought some 4" from ebay and opened them up a bit and got my torque back. Oh and no flash.

Yeah the idle was a little jumpy as best I can describe it. My low end all but disappeared but for some reason the popping wasn't that bad. More of a minor annoyance but then again I don't ride her that hard. But they were LOUD! I bought the baffles and opened them up because by the looks of the way they're designed, they seem like they would provide the back pressure my bike would need to run like she's supposed to. Anyway I have the nice throaty rumble I wanted and got my torque back. $7.50 for a pair of 4" baffles and they're built pretty heavy duty.
