I don't have an opinion on your exhaust, but I did a double take when I saw your post - it just so happens my name is Brent Michael..... ;-0)

What's your riding style? If you drag race, straight shots are great; not so much for anything else. 2 into 1 will give you better low end performance, nice for street riding.

Thanks. I have the V&H on now. Not the biggest fan of the neibors at 5am. You're right. My low end is not good with them. Just wondered if the 2 into 1 will rob some power

No the 2:1 will not rob power over what you had. I ran the Kerker SuperMeg 2:1(non-tunable) and had a ton of power from the bottom all the way to the top. It has a very deep tone which sounds better and is not as loud as what you had.

Our Kerker 2:1 will be a big boost in bottom and mid. Good bark but not offensive (unless you want it to be).

Take it from jangler14, he knows what's up!

Thanks,
