FIRST CONGRATS !

Def. get the Vance&Hines pipes they sound so much beter that stock and screaming eagle.

I recommend you to get the V&H Fuelpak and get the data from the website. very easy to install and you can tune your bike yourself with the settings V&H provides. Cheaper and just as efficiant as the screaming eagle pro tuner

The vance & hines is not a good option if you are looking to anything other than a stage one. I have it and now regret it because I want cams, now I will need to buy a real tuner to run cams.

Hah, you have no idea. I waited 7 months for my Competition Series. The supplier was probably saying "HOLY *****, SOUTH AFRICA IS ORDERING COMPETITION SERIES!"

Most riders don't know any better than ordering everything they can from the catalogue and bolting it on

Anyways...

The 2-1 should give you better performance. Isn't it a Vance & Hines Blackout 2-1?

I don't know what kind of pressure those short pipes will give, I'm pretty sure they don't have baffles.

They're essentially two pieces of pipe.

Don't really read to much into the short pipes are going to screw with your power. I have drag pipes on mine with no baffles and I don't even notice a difference from stock till now. The bike still has plenty of power. The only thing I have are x14ieds . And fuelpaks suck get something other than that. I had one and it messed with my bike terribly.
