There's a new local independent shop that just opened in my area, and he's running this special. Good deal?

PC-V $300 (fuel moto)
Cycle Shack slip ons $130 (jireh cycles)
Arlen Ness Big Sucker $130 (ebay)
Rinehart slips ons are way to much money, you can buy a full set of pipes for the kind of dough

+1. I agree with him. I mean, if you REALLY want the pipes and must have them, then go for it.. but you can get some Vance and Hines short shots (chrome.. black are a little more expensive) for less! If you install all the items yourself, you can get short shots, PC-V, and Arlen Ness Big sucker for $778 and install everything yourself. OR, you can go with the cycle shack slip ons and pay even less!

Not a good deal with slip ons. Granted his labor is worth something, but the stage one is pretty easy stuff.
I paid something like $150 for used Vance and Hines slip ons-they sound pretty nice; I think about the same for a used Fuelpak and then $230 for a Vance and Hines filter kit. Even if you bought everything new, you could come in under $850. If you went with full pipes it would only be a couple hundred more. The Vance and Hines slip ons look and sound like an aftermarket set of pipes.

I went with a PC3 for $298 at the time and a SE air cleaner used on ebay for $50. I later added Cobra Drgsters the I bought new on ebay for a total of $198 shipped. If you can read and change your own oil you can do this and save some cash.
