Anyone have a picture of the underside of the pipe where the pipe attaches to the bracket? Looking for ideas for my custom 2-1 i'm building.

I'll take a pic later, it's pretty simple.
MUCH smaller than the HUGE bracket for the Short Shots.


Also...

I weighed both systems on a cheap fishing scale and here's what i found:
  • Short Shots: ~13lbs (w/o heat shields)
  • Comp Series: ~4.5lbs (just the can)

You need to order the clamp as well (If you have a Nightster).
Check out the New one it fits the original mount and has analog Tach plus digital speedo and much more, gear, low fuel,battery oil , time , etc around the same price and really nice . I have the dual set up and wish it was available months ago. Canadian site

...that was the 4th attempt. Due to 'technical difficulties', i was getting a little annoyed.
1st try - was on a POS cam the gf bought me... youTube didn't like the format.
Second try i spilled my beer. Third - i got a phone call.

Can't really tell from the poor sound quality on my droidX - but the pipe is deeper, mellower, and seemingly louder than the previous short-shots. I set off my own car alarm now... it's either louder or the alarm is more sensitive to the lower frequency of the new exhaust. Probably gonna buy the 'quiet baffle' to appease the neighbors.

Nope, gonna got to the the local dealership tomorrow and look into dyno work.

...they may have a little more tech savvy than the Indy, or at least a little more access to a broader selection of maps than what is available to the public.

BTW, you weren't lying... when you get over 3grand it's a like a turbo kicks in!!
