Default exhaust performance charts

I am looking into a new exhaust system for my 2007Dyna Wide Glide. There are many threads on noise and sound but I cant find any on performance with performance charts and curves.
My #1 factor is performance. I want low end torque. I do lug the engine too much.
I am under the impression that 2 into 1 exhausts are generally better performers for low end.


Anyone know where I can find any comparison charts for exhaust performance?

If I am reading this correctly. the torque is increased from 75.5 to 83.4 in the 4000 rpm range.

Yeah, it's driving me nuts that it's so hard to get an deffinite answer are this... Stever at GMR recommeded D & D fatcats and Bassani Road Rage 2 into 1. I like the looks of the Bassani better... chock out the SuperTrapp 2:1 SuperMegs also claim to be the best for performance... also quite... don't know what I think about that. Their catalogue says they have the #s to prove it... but they ain't inthe catalogue (correct me if I'm wronge). I like their looks too, would like a little (read allot) of sound though.

I would stick to tunable exhausts with 02 senors. My guess is that they are all about the same. I'm sure some will work better with a particular engine build than others... but given they have not all been tested on your particular build... who knows... a stock engine compare might be helpfull, but we know some exhausts will work better with a larger cc engine than others... so if you're makin' your engine larger than stock... who knows...

I know some guys love LMR... I've been steered away from them with quality control stories, bad attitude from the company, I've heard they are a real bitch to tune...
