When changing to new pipes on 08 twin cam, do you have to change the gaskets, flange, etc. Also, does anyone know anything about the Hooker Troublemakers Slash cut pipes.

 

You use the same flanges in most application, I would get the gasket, $3 each

 

All 3x that I've changed pipes I replaced the gaskets too\\; they're "dirt" cheap so why not. I also replaced the stock flanges with chrome for about $20 a set.

 

You should always just replace the gaskets...like said above, they are cheap, and they crush when torqued...why risk exhaust leaks??

 

i used mine over because i forgot to buy them and could not wait to hear the pipes. they 6,000 miles on them. i now have about 11,000 miles on the bike and they do not leak.&nbsp\\; i would recomend changing them, but the old ones should work in a pinch.
