Default drag pipes

I just lowered my 2003 fxd and now my thunderheaders scrape in the front. I was thinking about switching to some drag pipes like the ones I posted. Do any of you know much about them. How's the performance? .sound? Any brand suggestions?

Drag pipes are ment for the drag strip(top end power wide open throttle high rpm), not so much the street. It will hurt your low end performance (low rpm, sluggish fall on its face). If your set on them you can buy/make baffles to get back some of the low end.

I have also lowered my 13 Wide Glide no problems with scraping. I just slow down for turns and curves.

Hope this helps.
