Python makes a 21 hmmm?
I was not aware of that. They make the best sounding duals
on the market.

If the quality and sound is there like their regular pipes,
I say get em !!!!!!

Pythons are made by Vance and Hines. It is supposed to be their less expensive line. They should be a good exhaust system.

I'm running them on my 08 NT, I like the look and sound but if you don't get it tuned well, they will turn gold at the collector very quick...it has happened to mine.

I have pythons slip ons for my RK and they sound great! They have that motorboat rumble at idle and a nice bark when you get on them.

I have been running slipons Pythons four years now, I like em. WaterHawg08 back in the day we use to High temp exhaust paint sprayed inside the header pipes and the collector so that the chrome would not turn color or blue. That was before heat shields and double wall pipes.

Hmm Don't like the idea of discoloration ! The Catalog I'm looking at says they have heat shields so I'm alittle surprised to hear that. Isn,t that usually from post detonation so since I'm running carbs as long as I jet correctly it shouldn't do that should it?
