Only problem is Stan, I'm in New Zealand not Canada, else I'd of got one at that price. How long ago did you pay $300?   It's a good price for a unit like this over here.   Basic ones with foot only operation and smaller with less capacity are around $800 then another couple of hundy for delivery.

Col, pretty comparable to Oz.

Not sure which one to put on my 1200 CVT Japanese domestic market Suzuki Swift. 
Will it improve the horsepower, fuel economy and increase mid range torque ??

Awesome, I've always wanted an Alikropovic exhaust!

I put a Yoshi can on my Ryobi garage vacuum. It sucked so hard that now its all disappeared, my shed is empty.

at those prices almost worth a try, one of each.
I try to take one day at a time, however sometimes several days catch up with me at once.

Yeah Col I just checked they have double since I bought it in 2000!

Put another 10 plants in this week. A mix of trees and shrubs. I've been saying for a while "That's between 300 and 400", but thinking about it I'm probably past 400 now.

Maybe not ideal weather at the moment but there's moisture in the ground, no frosts forecast, and they aren't expensive plants to take a risk with.





Fortunately I have a very good Community Nursery not too far away that sells tube stock for $3 (£1.45p) and traders at the local farmers market that sell larger plants at double that, so just doing a few a week isn't going to break the bank when I go back to native plants on a larger scale in spring.

Ali-Crap-povic ? LOL!

I think I have at least 8 Yoshi cans, either on standard systems or on Yoshi 4-1's or on the shelf, and I've long been a self confessed Yoshi exhaust fan.........

......... However, I just can't find the love for the latest ones. Not a fan of the more recent cans, and some of the link pipes look like an awkward after thought.

For the first time in a long time, I'm finding myself looking at Akrapovic systems.

The new lift table arrived today, got it unpacked & put together ok.  The Black 14 was the Guinea Pig for it.

looks great. Mines the scissor type, so it doesn't lean fwd when it goes up.  Your looks well built and sturdy.
