Just got a smoking deal on a Fullsac CX pipe and a TTS unit from Steve for my 14 Tri. Great guy to deal with. Now to score some mufflers and I'll be ready for the thaw!

:Agree:... call Steve back and talk to him about their muffler recore kit. I'm running one and like the sound and the $$$. I'm running their headers too.
 
Fullsac 2" cores is what I did and love the sound...it is loud enough for me...the 2" cores are just the right size for the 103...I will be adding the TTS next month with a hi flow air filter...

FWIW you might be able to save a few bucks and stick with the stock air filter setup. There have been some guys finding out through the dyno, Stage 1 filters don't do much for stock engines and even engines with a mild cam don't use the Stage 1 filter setups until around 4,000 - 5,000 rpm. Even then its not much of a gain, you don't see real benefits until you start porting heads and going to larger throttle body's.
 
Really? I thought the "bling" gave you at least 5 & 5!!??

The only bling is to the pocket. Mike is right. If you do a lot of reading about tuning and stuff the stock A/C does a decent job. Most everyone adds a new cleaner thinking it helps the performance but it really doesn't unless you spend a lot of time in the high RPM range. Yes it allows greater air flow but the porting is still the next restriction. So the stock heads get enough air flow out of the stock A/C in the normal driving range. Now drop a set of cams in it, punch the jugs out and do a little porting that A/C that you bought that LOOKS great will start doing it's high flow work. Really we all but those air cleaners primarily for the looks and that's OKAY.

Yep, I agree.

Thanks Mike for the heads up on that...maybe Steve can send me one with a map for the CX pipe and 2" Fullsac cores...I want to go with the TTS-100 cams but want to put a lot more miles on it first...

I've read a lot of good things about the Fullsac Pipes. Which would be better for the trike (those who already have the pipe) when I'm looking for tree stump torque and don't care about the high HP, either the CX Pipe or the Sport Pipe? I'm also looking at the TTS-100 cams.

I am running the CX pipe and the 2" Fullsac cores in 11' cans have about 20k miles on them that came off my 13' King...they really sound great to me...my 15 Tri is stock other than exhaust change...I am going to tune it with the TTS but don't feel I need cams at this point because of the way I ride...but when I do, it will be with the TTS-100...From all the reports I have read the TTS-100 cams will give you that low end torque you are looking for...

I had the CX pipe on my 2012, but on the new 2015 I put on the Sport Pipe. Both pipes are good quality and have the same ceramic coating and the Fullsac guys say the 2 pipes are almost equal in performance. I'm also running the Fullsac muffler recore kit with 1 3/4 baffles, which I understand are no longer available which is to bad because I love them. I just had the new TTS-100 cam installed and I am still tuning on it with the TTS tuner. I can assure you this setup has a butt load of torque and will pull hard from just off idle all the way to redline.

I asked Fullsac the same question and they told me the Sportpipe was a little less on low end tq. Thus I went with the CX.
 
Sad to hear that they no longer have the 1.75" cores. I bought a set of mufflers from Fullsac, HD cans with the 1.75" cores. Even Steve admitted on his personal bike this is what he runs. They are quiet but have a little sound a lot better than stock. And they are slash downs.
