Performance Pipe for my Dyna?
Wondering what the general opinion is here. Looking to get the most performance out of a set of pipes...what should I get? Would prefer to keep it under a grand, but if there is a set that will work now, and with different future performance upgrades (cams, intakes, heads, etc), they could be a little more. Bike is stock performance wise at the moment.

i run supertrapp also. i have a lot of vance and hines in the past and am happier with ST. performance and sound i like 2 into 1 pipes. imo they are the best but i know a few guys with race bikes that run short duels but they are super loud for the street.
what ever you do, make sure you get the pipe you are going to like cuz you don't want to buy two. they are costly.

supertrapp for me, love the tunability. with all 20 disks and closed end cap its almost twice as loud as the epa screamin eagle slip ons. just ordered the open end cap for a little more sound, i love that i can play around with it to get the sound where i want. i had a thunderheader and it sucked. imo it sounded horible, was too loud for me, and unless you spend most of your riding at 4000 rpm and above it has no low end tourque or power. the t-header is a high rpm pipe. another reason i love the supertrapp is that it has the most cornering clearence of all the 2into1 pipes

Well, 4000 is a bit extreme but the TH is well known for being a higher rpm performer and somewhat lacking on the lower end. It's just too open, which is why some people try to fix this by bending the tabs in at the outlet. I'm not saying it's not still a good pipe, it was just too loud for me and I think the tunability of the ST alone makes it superior to any pipe that isn't tunable. And there's also the clearance issue with the TH. Just sayin.
