Default 2004 road king exhaust change

I have a 04 road king with ss carb,with screamin eagle slip on pipes I hate, I never liked the sound since day one. I wanted a deeper throater sound that sounds good and low rpm as well as under power, I not sure whether vance and hinds or Rinehart slip on mufflers would better suit my needs, and would I have to rejet the card, suggestions

Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. I suggest you call in the Touring forum where you will get a much bigger audience and plenty of help. Sound is very subjective, but I'm sure they will help you out.
