    You want a pipe to try i have two of them that will rip your arms off the bars but you dont like them. With those short duration cams and those big valves .it will save ya 1500 in pipe testing . You aint heard a more nasty sounding pipe on a angry harley motor till you heard a thunder header.it will make your ears bleed.

    Don't know about bleeding but lots of ringing for sure. ran a Theader on an 89 inch evo dyna. that bike would fly. My neighbors were not too fond of the bike though.

    Tried to say something about Supertrapps years ago.
    The Supertrapp 2in1 is copied off white bros.
    Best pipes ever made. And they have disc to move the power band.

    But that ain't what he wants.
    He wants to reinvent the wheel. Or get something they don't make.

    It really depends on the size of the engine and the cams as to how the exhaust will perform, a good stepped header is key to getting power, along with a good set of mufflers.

    YOu should call Steve at Fullsac Performance, I run his X pipe with the cat removed, it's a ceramic coated stepped header, give him the specs on what you are doing and see if he's got a good solution.

    What would you rather have a hot girl friend that doesn't put out everything all the time but sounds good or a not so hot girl friend that will ride you until your ass wears out.
