    Count me in for a Black XL. If possible, it would be great if you could bring a bunch to SSITS. I have a good feeling you will be selling all you bring. I wholeheartedly agree on the sizes.

    It just pisses me off to hear that House Speaker Ryan is not endorsing Trump right now, that both the Bush ex-presidents will not be attending the Rep Nal'l Convention (guys I'm sorry Jeb lost) and I also hear that John McCain is also boycotting the Rep Nat'l Convention. There are probably others that will jump on the anti-Trump wagon. All I can say is: "Are you kidding me?". Like or not, this is your party nominee and at the very least, you should not oppose him actively unless you desire the alternative. So if Hillary wins, the first people the Reps can throw stones at is yourself, but the bottom line is, Hillary Wins.

    Folks: My comments as a Democrat, however, cannot stand Hillary.


    The GOP needs to get their act together. They are a party at war with and within itself, convoluted and riven by resentments and anger, destined to be divided all the way to November unless Trump can rally and unite the party. The path will not be an easy one, but for most people, whether elected officials, party insiders, or conservative commentators, it makes more sense to get behind Trump, even if you have been opposed to him until now. The party needs to swallow its pride, not be tempted by a 3rd party bid, and get on with the TRUMP train even if he is destined to lose. The last thing the party needs is an excuse for Trump and his allies to blame a defeat on a "stab in the back" by other Reps. That's a recipe for Civil War and another fiasco in 2020. Of particular importance in my estimation, if Trump does lose, his voters need to understand that he was the architect of his own demise. Rep voters also need to understand that alienating nonwhites, women and young people was a losing strategy. Reps at least should not oppose him actively unless they desire the alternative. By the time we get to November, the divisions of the primary campaigns will not be forgotten, but they will be set aside so that the more urgent goal of stopping Clinton can be served. That, more than anything having to do with Trump, is what will finally unite the GOP. At least until election day, after which they can start fighting with each other again.


    I am looking forward to the upcoming Trump & Clinton debates. They are the worst 2 favorably liked cands in history and who comes out on top will win this election. I cannot see Trump winning the debates unless he attacks and attacks hard. It should be just as entertaining as SSITS; regardless, it will be a lot less cheaper entertainment. I cannot emphasize this enough, Trump has to go after Hillary in the worst way without looking like an ass and showing that goofy smirk of his. On the flip side, additionally, he has to provide a viable and realistic vision on how he plans to run this country.
    -------------------------------
    I have to admit, my vote has to be for the Rep party for 2 reasons and not in priority order:


    1. Looking at Melania Trump versus Bill for 4 years. Are you kidding me; boy is that a no brainer. I have a hard time looking at Donald when he is with her. That in itself, gets my vote.
    2. Clinton has to be stopped in her tracks. Somehow the women in this country need to see her for what she really is and what she has done. Also, I cannot stand her laugh. If you have ever heard it, she sounds like the Wicked Witch of the West on The Wizard of Oz.

    @ss-lrv There is a clip on my website as well as a few more others on YouTube. Just search welter performance and it will take you to them.


    @Crusher I'm unsure about working with the fender. I haven't tried it yet. This system connect directly to stock manifold or 1320 header. I will have a turbo models available immediately after this one gets off the ground! Probably about mid June !

    This is the cleanest and best rear exhaust outside setup I have seen to date. It looks real sporty and fast. It is to bad many of us have turbos where this will not work yet. When you are ready to develop a setup for the turbo guys, it would be nice if it could be connected off of the up front side exit exhaust or cutting off the exhaust pipe before it gets to the side and run to the back. After that running the pipe out and having real nice stainless or chrome extensions (large where it resembles mufflers) could be cool. Also keep in mind of us folks who have rear fenders so the system will work with or without them. Again, congrats on a nice setup and I am looking forward to seeing it at SSITS.

    Folks: You would think that I am a Republican after stating the below but I am actually a registered Democrat. However, you have to ask yourself, does character matter in a President? I regretfully offer the following about our probable Democratic nominee (not mine though):


    a. Hillary Clinton claimed she was named for Sir Edmond Hillary. NOT TRUE
    b. She said daughter Chelsea was jogging around the World Trade Center on Sep 11. NOT TRUE
    c. As also stated in previous thread, she claimed she was under sniper fire during a helicopter landing in Bosnia. NOT TRUE.
    d. She claims she was instrumental in the Northern Ireland peace process negotiations. NOT TRUE
    e. She claims she sent no classified or top secret information via her unsecured personal email server. NOT TRUE
    f. She claimed the Benghazi attack was a result of a video. NOT TRUE


    ALL THE ABOVE LIES ARE DOCUMENTED AND INDISPUTABLE.


    Next, how about scandals? There were Filegate, Whitewater, Chinagate, and Travelgate, "bimbo eruption" cover-ups and attempts to intimidate and discredit women allegedly sexually victimized by her husband. (GOT MILK). Incidentally, a couple of months ago she said all women who claim to have been sexually assaulted need to be believed. But she apparently did not hold that view when Paula Jones, Juanitta Broadrick, Kathleen Willey, Jennifer Flowers, Monica Lewinsky, made their accusations. But I digress. There is also a mounting body of evidence that the Clinton Foundation is awash of corruption, fueled by Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton's alleged quid pro quo activities. The FBI is working them supposedly but expect nothing to surface prior to general election.


    Finally, back in the mid-70s, a 27 year old Hillary Rodham was working with the House Judiciary committee investigating the Watergate Scandal. She was fired by her boss, lifelong Democrat Jerry Zeifman, who said this about her. "She was an unethical dishonest lawyer. She conspired to violate the Constitution, the rules of the House, the rules of the committee and the rules of confidentiality". Folks, she has proven time and time again to me to be a ruthless, calculating, devious, dishonest, nontransparent, and corrupt politician. These character traits were established early and remained steadfast throughout her career and life. She is all about power, not your best interest. Even now, she is preying on women, especially black women stating things they want to hear, not what she believes, to get their votes.


    Finally, there's also the minor issue that under her watch as Sec of State the world is now on fire, our enemies do not respect us and our allies don't trust us. She was and still is a disaster.


    Now, in essence, you may answer the question, does character matter? If Hillary is elected our next president it would confirm my fear that the American voter puts little value on honesty, integrity, and competence. How sad that would be.


    Regrettably, I offer the above as a registered Democrat but certainly am disappointed in the Americans who have voted for her. Will I vote Republican; only time will tell.

    This Cruz/Kasich alliance is a travesty. Kasich has won 1 of 38 states and the people have spoken - they don't want him. I thought he was an honorable man but thinking he is going to become President sneaking in the back door shows me he is just another spineless politician that is in it for himself - not us!!!

    I believe the issue here is that Kasich is not in it for himself but rather how can he (and Cruz) keep Trump from winning the nomination. In my estimation, if they thought Trump was a true Republican, the fact that he is winning would not be an issue. The bottom line is "Can Kasich and Cruz keep Trump from getting the delegates he needs and trying to get this thing to the RNC?". Regardless, this is going to be interesting either at the RNC if he does not get the delegates or the general election debates if he wins the Rep nomination. One thing is for sure, Trump will not pull any punches going after Hillary.

    Awesome baby. It will be even better when we surpass the old forum. It getting where I cannot even remember it's name.


    Just wanted to say hey and officially introduce myself. I'm a pharmacist near Charlotte NC. I've had the SS for a little over a month and even with a short stay in the pit for headlight recall and such, I've put over 2k on her even with the less than ideal riding weather we've had of late. So far I've added the alpha CAI, 1320 header, Alpha adjustable exhaust, led headlights, headlight bypass switch, underbrow LEDs, prp seats, assault pedal covers, dead pedal cover, and passenger foot plate. Got tricled under glow in the way and combining it with an xkchrome controller vs their own Bluetooth controller. The DW thinks I've spent more on it since I bought it than I paid for it lol. It's a 2016 base grey but the previous owner upgraded all components to SL Simply bc he wanted the grey. Ive ridden MCs for 20 years and still own a roadglide ultra but I can honestly say at 40yo this is the most pure driving experience I've had out side of a true race build. It's not the fastest. It's no the quickest. It doesn't ride the best. But when he sum of all aspects is added up it is by far my fav vehicle. Anyhow, I've been watching and reading posts on both forums for over a month now and figured I'd introduce myself (I posted this over there too before things went south) It's a pleasure to meet you all and I look forward to riding together one day. Thank you to the admin that created this forum as a drama free hangout for like minded adults!. I have three kids and if I want the kind of childish balogna from "over there" I'll hang around my seven year old little girl and her friends.


    Take care and thanks again for all the info on both sites. It was invaluable as my boys and i turned some wrenches on the new toy.

    Welcome to the SS main forum now!! I am from Conover so you are not far away. You need to take a look at attending SSITS in May in Maggie Valley.

    Folks:


    As many for you probably already know, 1320 Performance has come out with their new header (Edition 2 for $395) which is suppose to be for turbo applications and aftermarket exhausts. Here's what I am interested in and hopefully in the future I can get some good info.


    I have the Alpha St 2 turbo with OEM manifold. Alpha's turbo setup uses the OEM manifold, however, they do have a turbo header now but it comes with an exorbitant price tag and also you will have to have the ECM retuned by Bob. Before I jump into the new 1320 Ed 2 header (which by the way comes with a very affordable price tag at $395), I want to know why it is so much cheaper than Alpha's or Hahn's turbo headers. At $395, that does not pass the common sense test for pricing (not that I am complaining) but exactly what are you getting? Why didn't 1320 performance state what kind of steel tubing was used for this new and better header when they did for their 1st one? It may be to early to ask these questions since the header just came out but before I jump and get one, I want to know what I am getting for this great price. You know the old saying, "You usually get what you pay for". Nothing would make me more happy than finding out that 1320 Performance header is made of higher than 304 steel tubing and it has been tested on an aftermarket SS turbo application (Alpha, Hahn, or Jon V) without any issues under extreme heat conditions.
