As Vance and Hines said, "features a newly designed end cap and sound diffuser for a mellow, yet powerful sound." Haha, what kind of guys do they have working there, it takes them over 3 years to design a new end cap....hmmm... ya, I would like to buy from them they sound like a smart R&D team. And we haven't even got to the "mellow, yet powerful sound", they should have just left it at mellow.
My personal opinon is this is the worst sounding slip-on I have heard
You get more power on the low end then you do on the top end
Who would pay $300 for almost a stock sounding pipe!
Most people buy slip-ons for sound not power, in this case it is a waste of $$$$
Are they scared to post a dyno on their page?
