Header Pipes
Hi, I'm new to the forum. I bought a 10 ultra limited (103) last spring and I also have power vision, s & s air cleaner, pipes want to get rid of stock headers with cat. I see them priced all over, I just didn't know if there is a benefit to the higher priced ones (I know you usually get what you pay for) or what advantages/disadvantages there might be? Thanks for any help!

Welcome.
I'd suggest that you look at a stock style header with the cat removed, these can be found on ebay, or if you are handy or have a neighbor who welds, there is a photo tutorial posted, search for it.
That's the bargain solution.

Welcome to the forum, these guys are great on helping us spend our money wisely.
Get your head pipe de-cated and ceramic coated and you will be just fine.
These head pipes are good for 125hp and TQ

There is a difference you just need to figure out if it makes a difference to you.
headers like Fuel moto 2-1-2 give you the best of both worlds unlike so called true duals or 2-1.
Harley run their best when the exhaust scavenges as it should.

Check out Americian Custom Exhaust, they also have a header pipe for about $234.00 or so. They are also a sponsor on this forum.

I have researched this a lot , if you are going to go with bigger cams,change intake, get a good header, if not, gut the cat. I did and am very happy with the results. Don't have a tuner, only VIEDS.
