Thanks to 'frenchbiker' & RK09RK. I finally got the assurance that I was looking for. It saved me a few hundred bucks that I'll now be spending somewhere else. (SE-255 cams....Ness Big Sucker ....Accel SLM..........

I considered V&H power duals & dresser duals, but didn't care for the looks. I know alot of riders are searching for a performance factor, but the headers are too bulky looking - especially dresser duals w/over-under pipe. I ended up going w/Bub-7 duals & am very pleased w/looks, sound & performance.

Got Em! Love Em! Sound great with Monster Rounds. 400 more miles till I can get her Dynoed. Want to get 1K first.
X-Pipes are supposed to produce more torque than straight duals. Most High Perf Auto Exhausts incorporate X-Pipes.
Torque, not horsepower, is what you feel when you hit the throttle.

A significant difference in temperature on the right side.
A moderate difference in sound/tone.
A perceived difference in power/torque.

I am pretty sure that the crossover is designed to carry better flow than stock. And it look great…
