Default Best headpipe upgrade?

What is a good headpipe upgrade for an 09 street Glide with SE204 cams, big sucker intake and CFR slip ons? Want to keep the dual out the rear setup. Looking for better flow and sound. Not sure how much change I’ll get in both power and sound with just a headpipe change? Sound is more of the priority but don’t want to hurt my current power. Thanks

Look at Fuel Moto, S&S, or Cobra for their balanced headpipes (2-1-2), help with low end and mid-range torque and horsepower.

Honestly, '09 headpipe is pretty good (unless you have a CA CAT equipped one).
