O2 sensor confusion/exhaust. Need advice
So I'm sure there is already a thread about this and done some reading and all I am now is confused.
What I'm dealing with is this. I currently have a 2010 fxdb. Running v&h side shots with bct monster baffles, a joker machine a/c, and a V&h fp3. I'm finding I'm getting an unbearable amount of pops and backfiring. I've tried different base maps and auto tunes with no success. I emailed v&h tech but have not received a response yet.
Ive sort of decided to try a different exhaust. I was thinking the v&h competition series 2 into 1. Where I'm getting confused is do I run O2 sensors? Do I go ahead and pop for new ones? Or do I buy the bungs and eliminators?
If I can get the side shots to stop backfiring it would save me a bunch of $$$. I've tried the bct qq baffles and found them to be way too quiet for my liking.
Any help would be so greatly appreciated

Save yourself an *** load if time.., money..., and heartburn - take it to a dyno tuner (not a dealer) - and get it properly tuned
You'll be amazed
Otherwise - you're in a dark room..., blindfolded..., trying to hit a moving target - and burnin money is the process

Your right about burning money. Im already into 2 sets of baffles and considering new pipes. I'll see if I can find someone in my area who would be willing to Dyno tune with the fp3
