I'm kind of partial to the Santee Lake Pipes but they are more for looks than for performance. They have no baffles and are welded together so it would be hard to put baffles in. They're loud but not deafening, nice low growl.
My second choice was going to be the rb-racing l.s.r.'s

If you are interested in pure preformance do your self a favor and check out a web site. Go to the R and B racing web sitethey make an pipe called the LSR 2-1. It has been mentioned a coupple times on this thread. Take it from an ex-harley tech and if you dont belive me go read there page and you will see. By that I mean they build bikes to race on the salt flats and they understand fuel, exhaust, and engine systems and how they work together. If you dontlike the way it looks that is one thing but for preformance it is the real deal I have one on my 07 street bob.

Cant beat them for wide open throttle... I find them hard to tune for average rideing conditions, great quality, buta long wait for them .....

Trotter you are right they are a little tought to tune for the thunderheader is easier but it can still be done. The race tuner is what seems to give the most flexability and best results but that is a tuner discussion and we could talk all day about feedback loops at given altitudes and results. You all so pointes out the worst part about the LSR 2-1 and that is the wait. I think that it took me 12 weeks to get mine but is worth the weight.

I have reinharts, not the loudest pipes on the block, , but they perform really well, and very happy...!!!! I know all thepipes mentionedsound louder at different rpms, how they are at idle, hitting the trottle, cruising etc. Thats what makes the world go round.

After you work with a few it comes easier as you learnyour base... I still got smoother and more consistiant throttle responce out of the Reinhart for average rideing,although the thunder header produced better numbers and awsum low and mid torque....
