Yes! No hesitation and great mid an low end torque. I can't believe the difference! What blue print? The sound is sick and so is the performance. Once I get the stage tune it will eliminate the pop I get every once in awhile.

2-3/4x2x1/4 zinc eyelet shank screws. 4 1/4 nuts and lock washers. Installed at a 90 degree angle in the pipe. Awesome!! Sounds like the devils *****!

I'm kinda curious, when I did mine I never fired it up with just the straight pipes. What is the difference in sound between the straights and the lollipops? I assumed the volume was about the same, but was unsure about the tone.

The db's is only about 10% lower. I found that Harleys are very back pressure sensitive. My drags are 1-7/8 id pipes. 2" od. I put 1-3/4x4 baffles in the bike and sounded very restrictive. I took them out and felt a lag at low end and midrange. I put these lollie pops in and a total difference with my drags. The idle sounds like a 68 iron head and the power has made a big difference. Big City's are 79 bucks. This mod cost me under 2 dollars!
