Going to be purchasing Exhaust very soon for My V . I have a pink spring Installed And A uni Filter. I would like to install HMF Duals but some say that it could Affect my power on the bottem end and I dont want that so should I stick to single exhaust. I plan on doing the 12 hole lid Mod oh yea my Motor is stock

I don't think you need to worry about losing low end with the duels, there is a ton of torque pumping out of that mill..........

I've have ridden one with Pro Circuit duel and the thing was a beast...........

The HMF's wont noticiably affect your low end but duals such as the LTE's will flow to much for a stock bore.

I recently put HMF Duals my 04 700 and what a difference it made. I really haven't noticed any affect on the low end and it really increased on the mid range. I haven't done it yet on mine, but another thing that would really help is going to a stiffer spring like the orange/blue and changing the clutch weights for quicker engagement.

HMF duals wont effect your bottom end. I race greenscreaminv all the time and the difference in his stock pipes and hmf pipes are uncomparable. It will stand the front up easier with the HMF's than stock so dont worry about losing low end. HMF's are sweet pipes!

I run a K&N and it works fine. The only thing with a K&N is you cant be lazy becuase they need cleaned when they get dirty. It is really easy to clean them so its not a big deal. I also think you would gain more if you put on a high flow filter with your pipes. I did... If you put on a K&N and HMF duals, and a red spring you wont be dissapointed.

Currently I'm running the exact setup kfxandahemi is talkin about with excellent results. MY machine won't pull quite as hard as his but, once on top end he won't gain me anymore. I plan on changing to the orange/blue spring, but can't complain about the epi red. Also, the K&N filter requires a little more maintence, but is well worth it.

From my experience the orange/blue by itself doesn't work as good as the red. If you're going to change you need to get the weights also like he did, the whole kit is the way to go if you want to go fast in a straight line.

That has some truth to it. Even without the weights and overdrive cover my orange blue still pulled harder than the epi red. But after I added the weights and the overdrive cover the orange blue got its full effect. Both of them are great springs compared to the stock spring.
