Thanks for the info, as I didn't know these were available. For those of you considering TD's, make note that they will decrease your low-end torque and probably peak HP.
No on Rush headpipes, but I do have Rush slip-ons on my UC with stock pipes.
I'm not impressed with the sound, actually. The mufflers came with 2.0 baffles, which were too loud, and I replaced them with 1.5s, but the sound is too "brappy" for me, not nearly enough low frequency in there to suit my tastes.
As I mentioned earlier, worth repeating, I had the same impression with my 1.75's and changed to the Fuel Moto custom baffles about a year ago. These are the same baffles that come in the Jackpot Dyno-tuned mufflers. You can purchase these for $99 from Fuel Moto for a perfect fit in your Rush mufflers. The right and left are different, so double-check fitment, as they are clearly marked!
These took away the bark, which I never liked, and deepened the exhaust note. They also quietened the exhaust, which was a welcome change, as the standard Rush baffles were too loud for my taste. I want a nice exhaust tone but also want to make a long ride without my ears ringing afterward, as well as being able to hear my stereo. These FM baffles did this, as well as add a meaningful TQ and HP increase, and I would never go back.
If you have a PCIII or PCV Jamie will also send you a special map for these baffles.

I already have the Jackpot mufflers, so it doesn't appear I'd gain much. Thanks anyway.
I have Rush downslash with 2" baffles. They give a deep, low rumble at idle and sound good at touring speeds. I run them with my stock a/c until I can afford a powercommander. But I can tell the gain in h/p just with the slip-ons alone. I'm very satisfied.
