For a more civilised yet effective alternative consider a SuperTrapp Supermegs, as below. A 2-into-1 will give improved low/mid range torque, in the rev range we mostly ride, not necessarily more power. Mine also gives a much smoother and nicer ride.

My son had a Thunder Header on a 1992 Lowrider Convertible FXR and it was so loud that you could not ride behind him. Any time he went through a parking lot he was likely to set off two or three car alarms. Not a fan.

Don't forget the Vance and Hines Pro Pipe. http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com...hrome-pro-pipe
I have one on my 2000 Heritage 88b engine with carb. Love the deep, throaty sound and I immediately noticed a "seat of the pants" increase in low end torque and power. I originally was running it with just a SE cleaner and jetted carb, but later added a cam as well. It has no problem keeping up with the 96 and 103s.
In fact I am so happy with it I purchased a Pro Pipe for my '13 RGU. However, I haven't had a chance to install it yet so I can't give you review on how it works on the RGU. I will be running it with a SE A/C as well as a Vance and Hines tuner. Winter project.
FYI, they also have a "Competition Baffle" so if you want a louder sound you can swap out the baffle in a matter of minutes.

RUSH Racing makes the Wrath... 2:1 stepped
Worth looking at. I have run nothing but RUSH on my last 6 Harleys.

I have a Rinehart 2 into 1 on my 2006 FLHX with 88" engine...very nice sound, good performance, very happy that I installed it. I'm a fan of 2 to 1's anyway...

Rinehart or big Louie's in my opinion.
Most Rush pipes I have heard sound good at idle but anything above idle with them is so loud they hurt my ears.
Also, if you get pipes that you like but they are too loud or too quiet, you could always change the baffles. Still, it is better to buy the right thing from the get go instead of planning on buying a mistake you will have to fix.
