Default Stock exhaust & CVO exhaust. Any difference?

Is there any difference in performance between a stock exhaust and CVO exhaust (for Street Glide)

Thanks

between stock and stock, you probably won't notice any. however, the cvo exhaust looks better, and you can go to fullsac.com and get a set of their 'cvo cores' and change out the baffles and end up with a good looking, good performing exhaust.

Yes, the CVO flows more/better. When I swapped cans, I could see thru the CVO exhaust, not the stock exhaust.

I also got a deeper exhaust sound that seams quieter to me.

Fullsac sells baffle kits for both styles, says the only difference is the looks.

The poster is more interested in performance change than sound. I'd say not much to any and let me put a aftermarket exhaust on my car which is a HELLCAT LOL. And do you really think this will make a difference. Only way to see performance changes is spend more money and more money which all the experts will tell you is the ENGINE and yeah new head pipe and eliminate the CADDY and tune will help. But its all about bigger LUNGS LOL.

Don't want to be persnickety but since the converter in the head pipes is a catalytic converter wouldn't they be called "Catty"? Just sayin'.
