Whats the better headpipe and why?
Fuelmoto Jackpot 2/1/2 stainless steel with ceramic coating
or
Fullsac CX headpipe with their ceramic coating?


Thanks

 

You left out 2 of fulsac headers. The DX and the sport pipe both out preform the cx. All are ceramic coated.
The stainless is better metal but the coating will protect the header, metal from rusting.

The DX does away with the flat cross over pipe with a round cross over for better flow. There is minimal difference between the dx and the sport pipe. The DX gives a slight performance improvement over the sport.
I have used the fuelmoto header and I liked it but I have noticed the fulsac dx/sport gives much better mid range power.

 

I was told today that the Cobra head pipe and Nightstick mufflers are the best change for power and performance. I haven't tried either but the person is extremely experienced in these matters and I respect his opinion. YMMV

 

what ever you do stay away from vance and hines products. I am having decent luck with there powerflow headers. But there slip on mufflers drop the exhaust tips which are quite substantial. They are only attached with screws that come loose once the trike heats up. Lucky and fortunate I did not take out a car behind me when the exhaust part flew off my bike. I just replaced the mufllers with Bassani tapered mufflers. Excellent power . Either product you mentioned should do an excellent job. I like fullsac stuff for performance. I should have gotten there stuff to start with. The dealer I bought my bike from had V&H so that is what I got. Fuel Moto is extremely knowledgeable so there stuff ought to be top notch. I have no experience personally with them however so your mileage may very.

The dealer I bought my bassani slip ons from has dynoed every make of pipe on the market . They say bassani can not be touched for power and torque. (mufflers) . They did not mention a favorite head pipe brand.

 

I'm not sure the Sportpipe outperforms the CX. from what Fullsac told me, the Sportpipe is "softer" on the low end than the "X" pipes.

 

While we can only speak for our own products the Jackpot 2/1/2 headpipe has been well proven on the dyno and in real world conditions since we introduced it in 2009 with literally thousands of pipes in the field. Our TriGlide pipes are fully tig welded and are constructed from 304 stainless, they have both 12mm & 18mm bungs and we offer a lifetime warranty.
