I have one on my scoot I just bought, and it sounds awesome, sounds like a damn Harley. I don't know what it is, I'll have to try and get the info for you. I think it's a performance pipe for a pocket rocket.

I saw a 150cc on YouTube with a yoshimura, I wasn't impressed... Especially for the price. If you like loud, you can always go FMF. I had a fmf shorty pipe on my last 150cc. It was loud, but was pretty nice, and when it backfired you would see a little blue flame come out lol

Scrappy's retro-slash has a nice bass-y sound and is pretty loud.

Note that most after-market exhaust require slight 'fabrication' to fit properly (I.E. a bench-vise, a hammer, and possibly fire)

They did increase take off and top end. Also the link he posted is a guy I do business with. I have dealt with him since he started out in just his garage a few miles from me..now he has an over 10,000 sq ft warehouse. I user test their parts and give them input on the quality...fit...finish and performance. I do have to say their BBK's are the highest output ones I have tried..even compared to the Malossi...NCY and Hoca I have tried. NOT a sales pitch..and no I do NOT get paid or compensated for any of this. Quite simply..when I find a good vendor I pass it along..
p.s. with ANY aftermarket muffler make sure you secure or hang the muffler at the back end to prevent cracking. Even the big dollar ones do this..and then you are out even more money. Here is a pic of how I made a bracket for $3.00 using 1/2"x3/4" aluminum angle stock from Lowe's.. IT has held up 4 years now on both girls Scoots..

those last look just like the cheapo i got for mine and i love it, throaty but not real loud. the biggest benefit for me was the light weight. the original mufflers weigh a ton and i had a very annoying and consistent problem with the straps breaking every couple of months or so. not one broken strap yet after about 2 yrs with this muffler.

Those 'cheapies' do sound awesome! Not too loud..but a deep throaty sound. Cagers can hear them coming and makes the ride safer than the whisper quiet stock and restrictive mufflers. In hot months like June,July and August..I checked the engines with an infrared thermometer and they run a LOT cooler than with the stock one..as they flow easier and don't build up heat..
