Can't comment on the performance but in my humble opinion the Low Cat looks much better on a Softail than the Fat Cat.

If I were to go to a 2-1 it would most likely be the Supermeg SuperTrapp's though.

If you must be that ****, change it twice !

Seriously though: A) have an extra quart of oil to hand 1) change your oil & filter as usual, 2) disconnect the oil return line (going back to your oil tank), slip on a length of same size hose to it, a foot or so is all, 3) put the other end in a drain pan 4) start the bike and let th dark oil run out until it runs clean [about a quart]. 5) reconnect the oil line and top off the oil tank.

Done deal.

ps: You really do not have to do this every oil change... Harley motors are not made of plastic.

Here is a pic of mine with the d&d fatcat when i first switched over i noticed more bottom and midrange since then i have done a lot of motor work on the bike and left the stock baffle in it. I got 117 hp and 107 ft lbs out of my 95 kit the guy who built my motor says d&d is the only way to go.

Now that's what I'm talking about. What did you use for your 95"? Those are some great numbers.

That is true that any 2 into 1 will improve power, but I am after how much more you will get with the fatcat specifically. It's funny, but I thought your python was a fatcat from seeing your sig pic.

Thanks for that cocky...Had you read, The return line butts up against the Fatcats headpipe, removing it is impossible without damaging your oil tank. Don't ask me how I know..I like Faast Ed's solution..
