i am going to take the starter to the starter guy on my lunch break and have him test it.
I have another question, I am going to take off the true dual system and go with a 2 into 1 pipe, can i get rid of that bracket that is inbetween the starter and the primary or do i have to leave it in their for spacing?

also here is another video

My exhaust bracket is not between the starter and primary. It is on the right/outboard side of the starter. The starter touches the primary direct. If this is how you have it mounted it might be the problem.

My Vance and Hines exhaust system came with a new bracket that replaced the HD in the same location just different shape,

is your vance and hines 2 into 1 or is it 2 innto 2 i was thinking if it was a 2 into 1 system that the bracket would not be used since their is no pipe crossing over on that side

I have true duals but my point is the exhaust manufacturer will supply a bracket if one is needed. Most of the larger manufacturers have a pdf on their website of the installation instructions. You may be able to see there or call them about the bracket.

The bracket was my problem I had in between the starter and primary and that spaced the starter out too far. Thanks for all your help. It is starting perfect now!
