Maybe lost some torque. What type of fuel managment do you use? Intake?

I have the combo you are talking about and actually gained on the torque and power curves on the dyno.

I was just going to throw in the same thing. I know alot of people say you loose torque with true duals. I have actually gained HP and TQ over stock. It may have moved the power band to a slightly different area but my BUTT DYNO tells me it runs great from stop light and on.

Whats that quiet?, I think I'am deaf, quiet rineharts never heard of such a thing! One of my riding buds has a pro pipe and it's tame next to my riney's, my other bud has V&H ovals and there not too bad either. Nobody likes riding behind me, cause they can't hear there bike.I think I may order a super trapp soon, cause the noise does get a bit old after awhile.[:'(]
