Performance Parts
I'm thinking about getting the Screamin' Eagle Street Performance slip-ons, and I already bought (but haven't yet installed) the Screamin' Eagle Air Cleaner kit. I was just wondering how much, if any, improvement in performance do you guys (and gals) get in general? I'm kind of skeptical about the official HD statistics that I'll gain x amount of horsepower andy amount of torque. So, do the pipes and/or air cleaner make any noticeable difference at all, or am I wasting my time and money here? (Also feel free to suggest alternate performance parts and your experiences with them)
EDIT: Keep in mind, I want performance. I really couldn't care less about the sound. (Quieter/stock-level would actually be better)

RE: Performance Parts
Screamin' Eagle Street Performance slip-ons are a No No!
I call them SE3's cuz well, they are the 3rd version of SE mufflers.
Basically, the EPA had their hand in their design and they are "muffled" not only sound wise but performance wise also.
Staying quiet while gaining performance is a tough task for any muffler. The SE2's may be the muffler for you if you can get your hands on a pair.
They are discontinued and are fetching a premium price.

RE: Performance Parts
If you want performance get a 2into1 pipe. the airfilter and slip ons do make a big diff in power, but you will need to remap or rejet to get it all.
