My 98" bagger has 108hp and 111tq, with 105tq @ 2500 rpm. Have a D&D Fatcat with ghost pipe on it runs great, does have the "dip" in torque just over 3k, but you dont feel it. I have no comparison with the True Duals.
My 88" Softail has cams, Mikuni, crane ignition & Coil with an RB Racing pipe, it has to be the happiest bike I've ridden. Dynoed just for fun if I remember it was low 90's.
We had to put new exhaust on my Wifes Sprty, she liked the looks of the 2 into1, so we put one on hers too!
PuttNut nice ride, wish I would have went with the RB for the bagger too.

So, it seems like a little HP is sacrificed for alot more torque with the 2:1. Grbrown stated that he lost 1 HP but gained 15 torque when he went 2:1. That seems worth it to me. And I bet that made a seat of the pants difference as well.
I have always liked the sound of the bassani 2:1 systems. I am becoming partial to fuel motto lately and would consider one if their systems a well. But now I have a few more to check out.

What was a surprise is that the engine is much smoother and sweeter running than with TDs. That is not the sort of thing I expected, so I have improved performance plus a much nicer ride.

those seem like impressive numbers in that 98" to me, but then again I'm still learning. That kind of power is what I aspire to have some day.

Just so you have some additional info: I got very similar numbers from my 95" motor with Rinehart TD's (104hp/109tq). Tuning has everything to do with the numbers and the difference (2 lb/ft ) between my motor and that 98" motor would go unnoticed when riding.
