Default Single Baffle Removal

I have a set of Cobra Speedster Slashdowns on my 09 Fatty. I also have the Stage I upgrade done.

I am looking for a little more noise out of them. Not concerned about low end torque loss.

Talk to me about the pros and cons of only removing 1 baffle just to give it more volume. My thoughts are that since the baffles are after the cross over tube, this should not effect things.

Anyone try it? Any feedback? TIA guys

I also believe that it will change the way the bike runs, one pipe will have less
back pressure. Hell give it a try and let us know.
