Find a used slip-on for the R6S and cut it down. Make a clean cut and don't disturb the packing and you can shorten the can a lot w/out it getting TOO loud. The first one I cut was a Blue Flame and I messed that one up so its too loud. The second one was a Jardine on my boy's bike and it turned out great.

I hate to break it to you, but my owners manual clearly states I have a cat 
Why would they put cats on the FZ6 and the R6 and not the R6S, that's just silly I'm assuming they all have to for emissions reasons at this point anyways... At least here in the United States anyways, other countries however, may not have cats on their bikes...
Everyone says the 03-04 R6's are the same as the new R6S, and while they are very similar they obviously have to update things to stay with the times, like emissions equipment and such... They certainly aren't the exact same bike... There have been updates and changes...
And yes, I do have 115hp, your thinking wheel hp which is about 10 lower. This is crank hp and it is stated as 115 right on the title.
For comparison for bikes sold in the US.... (These figures come right off the actual title for the bike)
07 FZ6 = 94hp
08 R6S = 115hp
08 R6 = 124hp
Now the R6 and the R6S also have ram air that adds about 5-6hp while moving at highway speeds and faster, but that is not taken into consideration for a stationary engine dyno. Those figures above are indeed what the motors make.

im not trying to argue with you im just tellling you there is not cat since i have torn apart atleast a dozen 03-05r6's and the 07"r6s" anyways heres a pic of the exhaust system setup directly from the parts catalog and if you dont believe go run to mrcycles and look up your year and model and it will show you that there is no cat.
i know for sure the new r6 06- current have a cat but the olders ones didnt i couldnt tell you why
o btw i know that those are crank numbers but most of us on here dont post crank numbers .....ask all the top racers what their crank hp and theyll give you a funny look.
as for adding 6-7 hp from riding down the street id have to see some kind of evidence to back that up

Huh, yeah, in that pic I clearly see no cat... So i went out and took a good look at the bike, I certainly don't see any place where there could be a cat.. (my old 07' FZ6 definitely did have a cat, as I saw it when putting on new pipes)
My owners manual clearly states that this bike is equipped with a cat, what is up with that? Do they just lie in the owners manual like they lie about the fake redlines? Or is it possible there is some type of small cat in the bottom off the muffler?
I guess as far as performance goes im glad it doesn't have a cat, but i trying to figure out how they get it to pass emissions regulations without one?
Oh, and read this post complete with a dyno chart at the very end, it gives you some info on 5+ hp with ram air...

Ram air definitely works if designed right....
I don't have any wheel hp numbers for my bike so I posted the only number I do have. I'm certainly no racer
Right, I have seen that I think in the how-to section. But when I do that i also get no muffler and a very loud exhaust..
