As far as the permatex sealer goes, I don't have any on mine. I don't think Brock used any on his first set of pipes on his 2006 14.

High heat RTV on the joints if you like .... You can reuse the factory copper gaskets ..I have many times with no leaks .. Get a BMC filter ... The pipercross filter will work BUT not as good as a bmc ..

go to the speedohealer website, and you can enter your gearing and it will give you instructions on how to program the unit.
