Mu bud just bought a 2011 CVO SG On it, is a set of true dual V&H head pipes and stock cans!? So he was wondering what would be better. 4 inch Rinehart's, or the Fulsac 2 1/4 cores. Which would be louder, and any performance difference? Thanx for the info.
Better?
Louder?
Performance?
All pretty subjective IMHO, probably find someone with either muffler and compare what you buddy thinks HE likes best.
As far as performance, probably not much difference, at least that you can feel.
Comes down to looks mostly, and TONE of the mufflers, I have found the Fullsac conversion to be a little deeper tone that works for me on long rides. Just my personal observations.
Good luck.

Thought about buying Fullsacs from a cost standpoint but yesterday I bought he Rinehart 4" slipons from Eastern Performance Cycles for $495 No Tax, No Shipping. Going to stick them with a set of V&H duals I already have.
For me, being able to actually hear the Rineharts and after looking at the minor cost difference I felt more comfortable knowing what I was getting. Plus I didn't have to waste my time cutting out my stock mufflers and installing the new cores.
Then again pipe preference is like belly buttons. Every one has their own. :)

Same here. Started with the 2.0 cores w/x pipe and TTS and then stepped up to 2.25 cores. The sound is a deep rumble and the performance seems solid. I was also happy with the 2.0, but wanted to try the 2.25 cores and liked the sound better. Not sure I could tell a difference between the performance of the two. Used Steve's tune as well. Very happy!

The Fullsac setup is excellent for all-around performance... but like any pipe, the bigger the cores, the less restriction and the more loss of low-end torque. You may not even notice it with the 110" engine on the street, though.
I would buy what you like, and get a competent tuner to tune it properly. Barring a really poor choice of components, a good tune is the biggest performance factor... even the best component mix can't perform if the tune isn't right.

Try the Kury Crushers/Crusher Mellows.
You won't be sorry.
+1. Happy with mine behind the Jackpot 2-1-2 headpipe.

the operator complained and complained and threatened to quit because the excavator had "no power".
the mechanic had a idea - friday after the crew was done he took the mufflers off and installed some old ones where the inside was rusted completely away & gave the engine a bath
the next monday the operator was so happy! - it was fixed! told everybody they had installed a new engine and now it ran like it was supposed to!! he promised to keep working.
everybody else hated it, the cops hated it - turn the key one min before 7am and instant ticket, the neighbors hated it. you could not hold a conversation two blocks away. the joke around the company was that we had to move those mufflers around to what ever machine the guy was operating.
this fall i was running a volvo 480 - so quiet... about three times the actual power of that old insley without the headache and ringing ears.
i have found a lot of folks who directly link sound to power - for them all you need is a straight pipe and they are totally happy. the rest of us are looking for a couple of potato's to stick in the pipes.

Everyone and their brother has Rinehart or Vance and Hines exhaust systems. Personally, I think the overpriced and are way too loud to enjoy a long ride.
The Fullsac 2-1-2 Pipes and cores fit perfect ! Performance and sound quality cannot be beat. Steve will stand by his products 100%
Thumbs down on the Jackpots.. (Horrible fit !)
This is my .02 so take it with a grain of salt.

By the way, I'm 51.
Right on the verge of stiff riding sports cars and 4-door cushy Cadillac's. :D :D :D :D :D :D

Fullsac all the way !!!

I agree with this statement. Nothing like going with what everyone else is doing! I HATE rineharts, hate the sound, hate the look, hate that they are on 75% of the damn bikes I see! Fullsac is a great setup. Good luck with your choice.
