THAT_GUY, the pipe looks good man. seems to sit at least 3" higher than my V&H. I spent a few hours wrapping that pipe and it took all of a two minute ride to the gas station to scrape my collector and shred my wrap. super pissed at this pipe. i want to flatten it and send it back to V&H. $875 bucks for a POS.

I want to know if you have to buy the heat shields to make the pipe look right or does it look fine without the shields? I can't tell from the pics if the un-wrapped ones have heat shields. Does someone have any pics of theirs with out the wrap? I don't think I want to do the wrap, but if the pipe looks ok without the heat shields I would run it that way.

honestly, The pipe needs the wrap to look right. The headers look too small without some sort of cover. I have a pic ill attach to show how it looks out of the box. Just wrap them, 100 extra for heat shields isnt worth it IMO.

Holeshot Choppers is still listing them on their site. I to would like to get this pipe for my FXDCI. Does anyone know how it compares sound wise to a thunderheader? the youtube video is hard to tell.

I called Holeshot yesterday and one the girls told me that they're waiting on one more machine to start manufacturing them again. She said that they were estimating around a month from now to start again but she seemed a little unsure. I want that exhaust but if it takes forever I might just go with the Rinehart Crossback instead.
