Default Muffler question

I have just replaced my stock 06 FLHTCI mufflers with stock mufflers from an 09 Street Glide on an 06 FLHTCI. The motor sounds a bit better and sounds easier, if that makes sense. My rationale for the switch was that I have heard that the 06 mufflers have a cat installed and the 09 Street Glide mufflers do not. therefore less back pressure.

The price was right - - no cost.

Am I heading in the right direction or am I dreaming?

As for performance i'm not sure you've change something.
BUT If you like it then you're heading in the right direction.
