Although I agree with the above comments, IMHO the "best value performance mod" is DK Customs TTI's for less than $20

Yup, that will definitely be on the list. I wish i did 2-1... hindsight is 20/20 though. How would you compare sound? I heard 2-1 doesn't sound as nice as 2-2.

Good to know. It's hard to get a true representation of how it sounds through youtube videos.

It sounds 'better' when you discover you get better low/mid range torque with a 2-into-1!

I have been lookin at the tti myself. On my carbrated bike....if i gutted the slipons and added tti would i need to open up intake and rejet at the same time. I have the stock breather as of yet.
If i just added them to the slipon keeping the baffles in tact would it be fine the way it is?

See post #42 & #46 by DK

Just email Kevin with your questions. They tested the TTIs with many different configurations....DK is the Sponsor of the Sportster Forum.


Here are the W158 TTIs in my 3" Rush Slip-on with 2.25" baffles.
