Default Rush or Vance & Hines

Merry Christmas!

Does anyone here have experience (Im sure they do) - on Rush exhaust?

I'm stuck between V&H ShortShots or Rush Crossovers for my 2011 Fatboy Special.

Thanks -Chuck

Thunderheader. We had the V&H shirt shots on her 14 Slim, Thery were load sounded good, but got a lot of decel pop. When she got her Heritage we went with the Thunderheader. They have a deeper tone than the V&H, no decel pop. And when you get on it have a real good bite to them. Performance wise the Thunderheader blows the Short shots away

Both manufacturers make a quality product. Pick whichever one fits your performance, sound and/or appearance needs.

Disregard, just saw you were asking about the crossovers.

All I can say is I've had a couple set of V&Hs and they are nothing but top notch quality... Can't speak for Rush
