Pro Pipe vs. D&D Fat Cat
I am installing a T-Man 555 Cam and a Heavy Breather on my 07 Deluxe. I am not a big fan of the looks of the D&D FatCat, and like the Pro pipe. But am I going to loose a lot of power if I go with the Pro Pipe, or will they both be ok?

I am sure the butt dyno cannot tell the difference between a Pro-Pipe on your Harley and a Fat Cat. I doubt there is much difference in actual dyno numbers between the 2 pipes. With either of the pipes you will gain MUCH torque and a little HP over short, open pipes or OEM pipes, of course, provided you also give her some easier breathing up top.

I have the Pro Pipe BP now. I had the old one on my Fatboy and this one sounds just as good as far as I'm concerned.

Its all personal preference...
IMO I like the D&D looks, but it sounds diff than the V&H's, I'd lean more toward V&H's.
the D&D's might edge out the Vh's by a couple #'s of Tq.???
I am older and the megaphone look that the propipe has reminds me of the older one,, don't like it as much.
Now the new V&H's propipe HO (black one) it one I'd be interested in ... then wrap the headers with black wrap.... and they sound good..
