i actually haven't fired it up yet, but the website says that it is supposed to outperform a thunderheader, if you can believe that. those shocks come stock on fxdx models, they are fully adjustable.

And yeah, I wouldn't mind buying some of those stock FXDX shocks. Hear a lot of good things about that stock suspension.

fired it up!
Well I worked pretty much through the night last night finishing up everything but the front brakes(line was too short! grrrr!) and fired her up, DDAAAAAMMMMNNN!!!!!! It sounded awesome, it was still relatively quiet at idle too. Capped both ends fo the front brake lines, and took it for a quik ride with nothing but a rear brake, y'know, cuz i had to test out the warheader. Man, it felt great, it sounds similar to my other 2 into 1, just throatier, it felt like it had more power too, but that could be me subconciously justifying buying the warheader when there was nothing wrong with the old can. Gonna snap some new pics today and post them, too bad it's raining here, cuz i wanted to ride it again today to see if it really did feel like more power or if it was just me being all giddy about finishing(almost) up a round of mods.
