Factory Carb is a good one . If you are running those pipes with baffles out and nothing done to jets put the baffles back in. Bike may be loud but it is stealing power from you.

What about Samson pipes are they any good???? Buddy had a set on his evo

They can jet it all they want. Straight pipes steal your power.

A Thunderheader is a loud performer.
Bored to 83", Wood 6 with the proper compression, and a good set of heads, power will be outstanding.

Then you'll want a "2 into 1" system. One with a "stepped" tube header preferably.
