I went with Samsom Big Gun 3 sweepers. Love the look and sound, plus increased mid range torque.

Im with you, A set of performance pipes is better than 4 pairs of sound good pipes, I dont care how *pretty* they look.
I would do pipes before the AC too, you may have to rejet/remap with the AC, then do it again when you pipe it.
I would start at the back if you are doing it in stages, its more cost efficient...

as an edit: I saw where you have a stage 1 AC, you aint gonna notice very much improvement in perf. on the bike with a FW or HB,
if its just looks and knee room you're after thats diff....

ORIGINAL: jwb47

good choice . go with the force winder and I think you will see better performance . I know alot of people like the vance and hines drag type mufflers but you will never get the performance out of them you will with a proper tuned exhaust. maybe you dontcare about performance and just want the loud and proud thing which is cool . Im just offering a second opinion formed from experience. I think you can order direct from force products , if not check out nrhs they sell them.
