It all comes down to what you want to spend...From all the articles I've read, the Thunderheader offers the most HP/Torque gains and is the most costly..

From experience, in 2006 I picked up a used V&H Pro-Pipe on E-Bay for $225 with shipping! When it arrived the baffle was covered in black soot which indicated that the engine it was attached to was running way too rich...The seller was not at all pleased with the performance.. I installed the pipe without any changes to the carb settings and on the 1st trial run noticed a huge gain in low-end grunt before the clutch was fully engaged!!! I'll NEVER use drag-pipes again!!!
