Utz is your bike FI or Carbed? If its FI, you will have to get the Stage 1 remap, if you change your A/C. I have a FI and had the remap done a couple weeks ago. Went with the SE A/C, and really like it.

You don't really use your A/C in the cool / cold weather so why not wait until it gets really hot outside. I wish I got A/C as an option on my bike!!![sm=dontgetit.gif][sm=roll.gif]

A/C...I'm lookin for a freekin heater. Damn bike had a great heater back in July, now it doesn't seem to work...!!!???? WTF?

As far as the original question, if you just replace the pipes you won't need to rejet the carb. If you want to really open the airflow, and horsepower, on the bike, then do the complete Stage 1 conversion with the A/C and rejet the carb. And you will have to rejet if you replace the A/C at this point.
