Default Correct mufflers.

I have 2016 CVO Road Glide. Stock air filter, throttle body. 259e cams. V&H headers, currently running CFR's.
I hear the CFR's rob lower end hp. I have V&H fuel pack set for high output mufflers. Also, now set at 'autotune' and it still pings like a damn Ford. Suggestions for mufflers please.

Its not the mufflers, your ecm is not mapping correctly for the headers change. V&H tech support should be able to help you with the fuel pak settings I would think.

Stock air filter with that setup? Bottleneck!
The pinging sounds like a timing issue, need to retard it most likely. I see a new Tuner in your future!

If you still have your stock mufflers (CVO) Buy a pair of the CVO muffler 2" kits from Fullsac. Install them and retune with the canned map V&H power duals and V&H Monster Rounds. If you have the newer software in your Fp3 there is a download for cams. I assume you have power duals.
Install external crankcase breathers. Fill the fuel tank (use pure gas if possible) and add 6oz of Chevron Techron concentrate fuel system cleaner. Take bike out and run the sh.. out of it. Shut it down hot and do it again. Let us know if it still pings. If you have carbon build up on top of the pistons or built up in the combustion chamber, no tuner will help pinging, unless you detune.
