I went with the Bub 7 true duals. They look and sound awesome! Might have given up some torque on the bottom end but my rear can't tell the difference![8D]

I went with the Bub 7 true Dual with no cross over, I was afraid I would lose HP and Torque. It was dynoed today, I gained on both. The sheet is in my cowboy cady at the stealers so I can't give the exact increases, the HP was about +5 and the torque was about +8 butboth havea better curve. I also can rev to over 6000 rpm's now. They sound awesume and they also Db at 100, which pass here. The only problem with them so far is the crowd that they gather because they are so new and not many ppl have them. Other problem is I have to change sig picture.

I've been flip flopping from going 2 into 1 or true duels... Just looking for your experience on type and brand of pipes..
Thanks

06 ultra
05 ultra here w/ a V&H 2into1 pro pipe BP

I had V&H slip ons prior to the header. put a V&H fuel pak on at the same install, and I can tell difference by seat of the pants test.
That back tire breaks away reeeal easy now (c: I can also tell the difference wickin that throttle open

Dont need no stinkin dyno job for my needs or satisfaction. I can also tell there is less heat on the thighs.

I love the sound of the 2into1, especially on hard decel (c:

99%r

That's some good information to know about! I was starting to worry that I might need to ditch my new exhaust in favor of a 2-1 and learn how to ride!

On a serious note, it does feel stronger now than it did with the stock exhaust. But I couldn't be sure that wasn't just a false impression since it sounds so much more aggresive now.

Hey all,

I've got the fix-all....I run a Fatcat 2into1 with a ghost pipe. Lots of performance, sounds great and looks even cooler! Check it out.

I can't imagine that you can feel the difference. It does sound alot better and makes you feel like you are going faster, but than again black paint does that too.

Another vote for the Bub 7 TD's w/o the cross over. I have pictures and some videos of them here

The sound doesn't do it justice compaired to real life.

Sorry boy's, the left side of those 2-1 bikes look nasty and I dont mean that in a good way. The only 2-1 that sounds good is a thunderheader. the rest sounds like powder puffs. But I will keep that in mind the next time I am drag racing.
