I am wishing I left my headpipe and cat alone. The heat didnt bother me but when the daughter was on the back it bothered her. I am gonna wait til the snow flies when people start their winter projects and see what hits the classified ads. We all change exhaust at one point or another. Someone on the forum will be ready to get rid of something I didnt know I needed.
I went the other way around. I left the factory head pipe and cat but completely removed the decibel reducer and muffler baffles. Now the bike sounds like a Harley without any exhaust smell and no tune having to be done or adjusted.
I only noticed an ever so slight drop in low end torque with the old lady only the back and saddle bags loaded.
What mufflers are you running?
Surprised you don’t have a large loss of low end.
This thread makes me glad I left the stock header alone when I did the torque cam. Most of the shops around me would only recommend a limited number of header/muffler combinations without saying I would loose low end. I am running 4" grand nationals and have no popping, strange noises or performance loss.

Unless your at the track running between 4-6k your better off with the stock head pipe.

I've got a stock head pipe with the cat in it. PM me. I'm sure we can work something out.
