Right now I have stg 1 AC, straightshots and micro tuner. For more grunt, should I get a PV or Bigshot staggered exhaust? I wish I could get both but funds are not available at this time. Forgot to mention, I have the TTI's in the exhaust.

Honestly the micro tuner works fine, you won't see any bump from the PV unless your tune on the Micro is way off. You might see a small bump from the Big shots, but you would see more from a 2 into 1, and the micro is sufficent to adjust your tune, it will need adjustment though to get the most out of any exhaust.

I really don't love the 2 into 1 looks. The more I ponder on it though, the more it makes sense. Maybe the Pro Pipe?

A good 2-1 system is the best way to get the most out of any HD...stage 1 or otherwise modified. You would be amazed the difference it really makes. Your straight shots are killing your low end. Big shots staggered would be a small improvement, but nothing compared to a 2-1.

D&D Fatcat or Bobcat, Bassani Road Rage, V&H Pro Pipe, RSD Slant, Thunderheader, Supertrapp Supermeg 2-1....any of these 2-1 systems will give you a lot more performance over any 2-2 system.

The pipe in my sig pic is a D&D Fatcat.

Actually the big shots will get you very close to 2-1 numbers, I was surprised

Not to worried about dyno numbers, but would I feel a difference between the BS Staggered and a Pro Pipe?
