Default Pro pipe/header

I currently have rush slip ons, 2-1/4 with no other mods on the limited. Wanting little more sound and have the opportunity to purchase lightly used black pro pipe w shields at a deal. For the same price I keep what I got and get dual header set up. Have fuelpac to install. What should I do?

Either option you mentioned will make the bike louder. with yourbike being so close to stock I don't think you would notice any performance difference. It kinda boils down to wether you like the looks of 2 into 1, or true duals. Also are any other performance mods in the future? I've had both and liked them both.

Thanks Bill. No other plans at this time other than the fuelpack and an AC. Can go either way on looks. I think both have positives. I am concerned about the black finish staying nice, and the possiblity of the pro pipe robbing power without any other mods than mentioned. I really like the dresser duals, and have briefly looked into the rush headers to go with the slip ons. Thanks again.
