Question Cobra slipons for HD Baggers

Anyone have any experience with Cobra Race Pro Slip ons exhaust for baggers with the new Milwaukee 8 engine? I just bought a new 2017 limited low and added the Cobra slip ons. However they are not very loud. Should I purchase a fuel tunner and would this increase the sound level?

Welcome to the Forum from Kansas!

I have heard a stage 1 M8 and it wasn't very loud. You may have to do a header as well.

i think added volume comes from removing the cat , i think this could effect the warranty but that is between you and your service man

Don't think a fuel tuner will add any sound. I have Cobra 4" on my 2015 and I think they sound great. Like someone said above you may have to go to true dual's. They continue to change engines etc to meet EPA requirements not sure that is always to our advantage. Need to check on your warranty before making changes.

I just added Cobra Neighbor Haters to mine. They are plenty loud for me. Very deep sound. They sound mean and I love it.
