    Does anyone know if the stock Akropovic header used on the 2013 TC 250 will directly fit a 2013 TXC 250R?

    Basically I know the header will bolt on, but will it properly mate to the TXC silencer?

    If not, can someone recommend a spark arrested silencer that will work, since the stock TC silencer Is not spark arrested I don't want to use that just the header pipe.

    Thanks

    The tc header will not work with the txc silencer.

    Are you sure the tc silencer is not spark arrested. I think I remember reading about people cutting the spark arresters out.

    But, a TC system *will* fit directly onto a TXC. I know this because I have an Arrow ti system for a TC250/310 on my TXC250. I don't know off the top of my head if the Akropovic muffler is arrested, but the stock Arrow on my TC450 is arrested.

    I just checked my 2012 tc250 silencer and there is a screen in it.

    In 2010, the TC header rubbed the IGN cover on a TE/TXC because the TE motor is wider due to the E-Start.

    I don't know if this is the case in 2012/13. I doubt it but it might be worth checking.

    My 2010 TC header touches nothing on my 2010 TXC. It does, however, come close enough to the lower radiator hose that I wrapped that part of the header.

    At least the tighter header pipe will be less susceptible to dents.

    My highly calibrated butt-dyno indicates that it has a little more punch on the bottom, pulls noticeably better in the midrange and low-midrange, and it definitely pulls better on top.

    I'm running the complete Arrow TC system on my TXC.

    We do have one Arrow full system, we don't have a separate headpipe.

    We DO have a Leo Vince slip-on though, for those looking for a muffler.
