Default 2022 RD KING FLHR Stage 1 Exhaust recommendations

Hello, I recently picked my latest ride and looking to add a little more attitude to the M8 2 into 2 Exhaust system.
I had a 2010 road glide with I believe thunderheader pipes (2 into 1) that sounded like a 70s muscle car.
that’s the type of sound I’m trying to emulate with my latest ride. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.
thanks in advance. Ride safe.
Keith

I have the Tab Exhaust with the 4.5" mufflers and zombie baffles. Really sounds great. Lots of sound clips on you tube.

thanks cobra for your feedback I did listen to the soundbites on YouTube - since I’m in an HOA with a lot of EARS listening to my bike I’m think I need a little more mellow Exhaust that at idle sounds decent, but really when you hit the throttle brings out the low deeper tones for cagers awareness that a bike is present.

I have Rinehart DBX 4.5 on my FLHRXS. Mellow rumble at idle. If you roll up the RPM, they will make some db's. Good deep rumble at cruise speeds on the superslab.
