Default Phantom Pipe

Looking at maybe going with PY Phantom pipe, anyone here running it if so what is your opinion of them they are baffled now so the added backpressure should help with the performance some. thanks

Yep, baffled for back pressure. I took the baffle out and used cones for back pressure because I like it loud and it sounds great! Had D&D Fatcats when I done my stage 4 which is a better pipe for performance. Lost some hp and tq on the dyno after I put on the yaffee pipe but the sound and looks made up for it in my opinion.

No, everything went together fine..... I do think the D&D Fatcat is a better pipe overall, but the looks of the yaffe pipe was what I was after. And the sound of it made even better especially with the 259E cams, nice thump at idle!

I put one on my Road Glide and loved the look but man it killed the power. If you want looks its a cool exhaust but if you want HP and TQ go another route.
