Empire Industries Gen 2 Exhaust System – Yamaha YFZ450R / YFZ450X
The Empire Industries Gen 2 Exhaust System is engineered to deliver a balanced combination of performance and rideability for the Yamaha YFZ450R and YFZ450X. This system provides strong, usable power across the entire RPM range and works well with modified engines.
Featuring a 2-step header pipe design, this exhaust improves exhaust velocity and engine efficiency, resulting in quicker throttle response, stronger mid-range torque, and increased top-end horsepower compared to standard exhaust systems.
Each Empire Industries exhaust system is handcrafted in the USA using mandrel-bent 304 stainless steel for durability and performance. The lightweight aluminum octagon muffler with billet aluminum end caps provides excellent strength while allowing easy service and repacking.
