Red face Thunder Headers
I am considering putting on a set of Thunderheaders and a stage 1 kit on my '08 Electra Glide Classic. Has anyone had experience with the Thundr Headers? Thanks!

i HAD thunderheader slip ons on my 2002 Road King, and took them off in favor of the Rinehart true duals, mainly because after a couple hours in the saddle i had a pounding headache from the thunderheaders. You can't beat them for around the town, but on longer trips, it was too much. Other than the occasional (ok, more than somewhat occasional) change in the mounting bracket, or a cracked rear header or two, i've been pretty happy with the Rineharts!.

T-Headers sound great. They are moderately loud on stock'ish bikes. Add compression & cams and they are f'ing LOUD.

Performance is certainly better than stock, but mediocre as performance 2into1 exhaust systems go.
