Default New slipons

i have a 16 Street Glide CVO with Rush headers and RCX slipons. I changed the slipons from the RC’s to Bad Dad Long Shots. I’m trying to figure out if I need to have it re tuned after changing only the slipons not the headers. The Bad Dad guys didn’t think I needed to since I didn’t change the headers. Looking for advice, what do you all think?

I say it's not required, if you were to change breather set up, yes.

The Bad Dads have a sharper, crisper tone than the RC’s. The RC’s where deeper and more muffled. The Bad Dads really livin up on acceleration
