Default Thunder Header Exhaust

I have a 2010 fatboy. I want to put a thunder header 2 into 1 exhaust system on it. Do they come in any different styles/looks other than the 1057 type? And what would I have to do to my bike in addition to the exhaust in order to get the most out of my engine/insure proper performance?

1. Th'ers have only one look as far a I know. They make good #'s but,, they a lot of members in here think they are not the best looking system out there.

2. To get the "MOST" out of Ur motor U'll need to spend $4-5 k easy.

3. Never heard of proper performance. U tell us what U mean by that and we can help U more.

Probably 20% or so owners just do pipes, another 30% do stg1, another 30% do stg1 and cam. then the last bunch do Stg1, cams, BB kits and heads.

Each one of the above think their bike gives proper perfromance.

So it depends on what U want and then How big U checkbook is.

To help U learn, it'd be a good idea for U to do what most of us have done.. Go to goggle and do some searches on what U need to learn.
There is soooooo much info online that there is VERY little that U won't find U answers if U just spend a little time looking.
