Does the V&H "Powerchamber" work?
This is my fourth bike, but I am a first time HD owner. In fact, my bike hasn't even been delivered to the dealer yet. What I do want is something great, and I'm really pumped up right now.
Before I decide on what pipes to install on my 95" EFI, I was wondering if going with V&H's Big Shot Staggared, and it's "powerchamber" was worth it over the non connected pipes, such as the Big Radius. I LUV the BR, but I don't know if I want to give back any HP that I am adding on..
Does anybody have some dyno numbers, or maybe some personal experience with both pipes?
So the question is Powerchamber vs. non Powerchamber performance.
Thanks very much for your replies.

Try using the search option on the forum, but I wanna say someone posted the Big Shots are not a great choice.
Do a search for Big Shots or Vance & Hines I'm sure you will get some hits.

i have the screaming eagle 16 gauge double barrel pipes which are made by v&h for harley.they are almost identical to big shots but eagles have a bigger power chamber.the s.e.s. were a little too quiet .i found out that baffles from big shots would fit in my pipes so i bought them and they sound exactly like bigshots.sound great.as far as power bike runs real strong.my friend has an 04 softail standard with big radius. as far as power i read you will lose some with the big radius.but friends bike seems to run ok.but his are much louder.
