I have a Vance&Hines two into on Pro Pipe. It has a very good sound to it,very throaty,more power! Doesn't sound weird like straight pipes due to the motors twin pin crank design.As for the tag problem, I don't know, they deal with alot of vehicles a day so I assume they take awhile. One month for me.

Before you buy the aftermarket pipes, try this (you're going to throw away the stock pipes anyway.) The stock pipes are heavier and better built than the after market pipes, but they keep too much of the good sound in. Let that good sound out and you have a superior combination. I've found that the 'Big Deep Sound' is a function of hole size. (longer wavelength). Two bigger holes (top and bottom on the back face plate) really let the deep base out. Since 1/2" is the biggest round hole you can make, I used a dremel to make the holes wider ~1" (what a difference). I like the way the stock pipes look. Now I also like the way they sound.

If you do make these holes in the stock exhaust, would you have to rejet due to not enough back pressure? Just wondering...

I had to had to adjust the low speed mixture screws ~3/4 turn out each. Runs perfect now.
