Posted this in the touring section but figured it be best here...

Got a tc 96 w/ 18k on it. Previous owner installed the rush true dual setup on it. In a few weeks I'm pullin it apart and throwing in a set of woods tw222's. I'm gonna have a little dough left over so here's my question. Should I send the heads out to bigboyz and get them all cleaned up and ported/polished or should I scrap the 2-2 setup and get a nice 2-1 exhaust (I like the sound of the propipes). Can't do both. I do want good performance but I don't know which one would make the biggest difference. Heads would be cheaper and at 18k I'm sure they look like crap. But I don't wanna do cams and heads and then have my exhaust completely ruin the build... Help me out y'all.

 

the head work is going to make the biggest difference with some added compression.

 

If your going to establish cylinder head work, then a set of Wood #6 cams will show you more under the curve.

You could toss a coin and not go wrong either way. Both will set you up for further mods down the road. Cam choices are like belly buttons..everyone has one. Guys like Scott can help you match you heads/riding style to the proper cam. The best would be to have both, but believe me I understand not being able to afford everything. If It was me I would get the sound I wanted first, and save up for the engine mods...

 

Head work, no brainer; the Rush system will work out fine with your plan. JHO
