I have a stock exhaust on my z50ak5 with an 88cc kit and it runs OK. It appears to be way too restrictive, though. I think I would gain a considerable amount of power with a free flowing exhaust, which is next on my wish list.

i have a stock pipe on my 88 race head motor, but i have a custom tip similar to the commercial ones out there and the tip did wonders for the power... i made it on my lathe when i was bored one day

my friend has the exact same motor as me and bought a cheapo flyin'50's pipe for 79 bucks on ebay and it made a hell of a difference in the mid range top end, but sucked a little bottom end out of it...the thing is literally a monster on the top compared to mine now ( but he also has the new race head with teh bigger valves)

Look at Tbolt or DrAtv for cheap pipes
