Default Headers!

getting ready to pull the trigger on V&H Power Duals and a Power Vision tuner. I have V&H slash cut rounds and air intake already. Any advise or suggestions from others who have done similar? Thanks, and Merry Christmas!

I ran the Power Duals for a while (pre 120R) and I loved them. Installation was easy and the Powervison map was dead ***** on.

Thanks for the reply. Did the power duals make your bike much louder? I'm more interested in the performance... wouldn't mind it a just a little louder, but not crazy loud.

Yes, louder than stock, but more important it ran cooler.

I have the V&H Power Duals on my 2012 Road King, along with a Ness Big sucker air cleaner, H-D SEPST with a pair of RCX-Haust slip ons. Performance in all ranges much improved and it sounds powerful. I think you'll be more than happy. Mine dynoed at 81 H.P. and 100 ft.lbs. torque. I'm well satisfied with it.

Decided to go with the Jackpot ceramic headers instead. Should have them in about a week. I'll install them next weekend.

Better bang for the buck because of the ceramic coating inside and out. Will also fit under the stock heat shields so looks factory. You're gonna love it.

good choice fit is perfect under the stock shields and sound great! Good to see that FM finally got over the long lead time for those headers, took me 4 months to get my set earlier this year.
