Default Dyno Results: Fatcat vs. V&H Big Shot Longs

Here are the results of a dyno comparison between a D&D Fatcat with quiet baffle and Vance and Hines Big Shot Longs with quiet baffles.

The bike is an '06 Heritage Softail Classic with a stock engine, K&N air filter and a Power Commander.

You can see why the bike immediately felt so much stronger when I mounted the D&D. Sold the BSLs to a friend who enjoys noise.

The top (blue) line in both cases denotes the Fatcat.

Hard to put into words. I have the quiet baffle. They are quiet at idle and in cruise, but really open up when you get on the throttle. For me, the ideal combination.

I must be real lucky: the Fatcat was #4 for me. H-D Torque, Rush slip-ons, V&H BSL, and the Fatcat. There won't be a #5
