For Max Headflow: Not the best comparison since the angles aren't the same, but here's a shot ot the intake ports side-by-side. FM CNC B-level head left, stock on the right,

132 HP/128 TQ. Jamie is going to take a look at that dip in the 3300 RPM area. I think the torque is lower than it could be due to my duals, and presumed that it would be going in. The dip might be related to that also. Tuner is reputable, tried everything possible but got it to this point. A 2-into-1 exhaust may be something I may consider down the road, but I do really like the duals. More to come next week.

Adding a back pressure to the exhaust system will help..

Are you referring to adding 'lollipops' to the pipes? I thought about that.

Really don't know what will work for your setup. Some kind of exhaust tip, a short section of smaller baffle, or a lollipop? Even a smaller sized full baffle might work if you like a quieter exhaust.

Only you know if its worth the trade off in bottom end for the pipes you like... don’t go chasing numbers to be happy with your ride

Lolly pops have done wonders for several of my bikes. super cheap, and easy to install and try out. You can install with or without baffles, or any combination in between.
