Just did the V&H true duals with stage 1 filter and SE stage 1 download .Runs great. I was amazed by the fact that the parts guy at the dealer really pushed to sell me the Master Tune @ $425.00 and dyno time @$450.00 to make sure the bike runs right ,then the service manager tells me he will make it run right with the $125.00 download.Bike runs great and I will have them dyno the thing over the winter when they run discounted dyno time.

Back to the question. Like BlacknChrome said. Pipes only - no remap needed. I ran Vance and Hines duels for a good year alone without doing anything else. No issue whatsoever. Later added a Big Sucker and fuelpak and am very happy with the difference in performance.

Cheers Dean

Well, Since you want to do it right, go with Samson true duals.

Hello
How much difference did you notice after adding air and re map?
Or for that matter from stock ?

Thanks for the help everyone

Default V&H pipes

I'm running V&H true duals with the fuel pak and a Ness big sucker, every part of performance is greatly increased. Bike runs cooler and I'm getting a little better mileage also. Like most everyone has said It's best to do it right the first time. Hope this helps.

It is a noticeable peformance difference from the stock set up. It's a somewhat expensive mod but well worth it when you consider the money usually dropped for other mods that just enhance looks.
