And S and S checks all boxes. Looks like you can’t go wrong with any of these systems. The horsepower gain from stage one to stage two is really remarkable.

    Great video. A lot of effort went into this video and we know you can’t test every exhaust. We all are guilty of chasing peek dyno numbers and stray away from where the power is made and what rpm range we actually ride in. Cams should be chosen by the rpm range we ride and the pipe should be matched to that cam. It would be interesting to throw in one old pipe/ “old technology” (i.e Thunderheader)to show benefits of a new pipe vs pipes we ran 20 years ago.

    No one seems to make full titanium exhausts for Harley like the Italian brands like Ducati, MV AGusta or Aprilia. The super thin wall titanium is stronger than steel, does not rust or corrode. It’s almost 50% lighter than steel but allows a special ring tone to the exhaust sound. You can hear the difference. Titanium is known for its rapid cooling to help engine performance. It cools almost immediately when engine turn off. Plus the beautiful colors of the metal

    I could only imaging the hours of work that went into making this video. I will say one thing kind of in response to what Chris is saying about the dyno charts. You may have one exhaust that will work great for a stock bike and maybe shitty for a cam job. I have seen a lot videos and talked to a few techs that have customers not want to switch pipes because it is not the right pipe for that cam. If you are planning to do a cam, be prepared for a few things. 1. Your exhaust might not work will with the cam you want. You say you don't care until you ride the bike and find out for yourself. 2. Be prepared to swap your exhaust for the cam that you want. (This would be expensive since you will be switching exhaust systems twice) 3. Be prepared to pick a different cam to work with the exhaust you have. Even though I'm not a tech, please talk to the person that will install and tune your bike. That person does it for a living and will have way more knowledge about this stuff that you do. More than likely, if you go with what your tuner recommends, you will be way happier than if you just slapped something together and sent it.
