Default Installed Python Slip on

Friday night my new Python's showed up. I started to remove the stock exhaust, and everything came off easy. I was really expecting some issues removing the exhaust, but pleasantly pleased how easy it was! Only issue was one band clamp, head continued to move and not lock in place. Got new one and all is good.

Now... for the good news... It sounds 90% different!!! Still have the stock A/C. It is loud, but not obnoxious. Still have the decel pop, had it with the stock exhaust so not too concerned.

Anyone looking for stock exhaust with 25,000 miles on them?

I've got a set of stock mufflers too but plan on keeping them. Never know when we just might have to put them back on. Also, you can send them to American Custom Exhaust (I think that's right) and they will modify them to suit your taste. I'm running Rush slip-ons and like them a lot.

Just had my Python 3 slips put on my 07 FXSTC. I love the new sound, nice grumble but not obnoxious.
