Need some exhaust help here!!!
Hi, I have a 2005 Electra Police. I bought it with 4k miles, by that time, I didn't knew much about HDs, so I immediately took it to the HD dealer and told them I wanted loud exhaust pipes. They installed new round pipes without baffles. Now I bought V&H Twin Slash Ovals. I tought they were very quiet, so I removed the baffles and obviously lost some power from reduced backpressure. I was looking to install Big City Thunder baffles, but when I was measuring my pipes, something inside looks like they are already in, maybe when I took it to the dealer they installed them, but they are not in the V&H, they are located right where the pipe ends and connects to the V&H. I am attaching some pictures to see what do you guys think. When I removed the baffles, the twin slash must come off, as it is together, but as I wanted to keep the twin look, I cut the baffle from the exist slash, so when I put this twin slash end tip, I get some backpressure back and runs better, noise lowers. I wonder 2 things:
1) Inside the V&H at the front there is still some long tube alone, what will happen if I replace the BCT on that part, in order it to be more way back and inside the V&H.
2) The twin end tip, still has a small piece of tube, where the muffler used to bond. What if I place there the BCT, that way it will be placed about 5"from the exhaust exit.
Any suggestions are welcome, thanks
