Default Cholo baffles

Just put my 39" cholos on look great . I'm glad I went with the 39" ones. Not sure about the non baffled ones though.
If I want to put a baffle in them , would i get the BCT one? What size ? And I guess I would have to put it in the head pipe right before the muffler?
Any idea how it would sound? Liked the sound of my old baffled fishtails.

I put baffles in my Samson's when I had them. I put BCT's. They still sounded great and gained a little low end torque back but lost the great deceleration sound that I like so I took them out after 1 trip around the block. I had the 1 3/4" fishtails so i had a different size baffle put in.

I had the 28.5 baffled and switched to the 39" unbaffled and wouldn't go back. To each is own...

Question, whats the best for an 06 heritage(carburated), baffled or non-baffled? If non-baffled torque cones would be good for the back pressure right??

I ordered the thunder city baffles , but now it's starting to grow on me , might be selling some baffles soon. it,s so nasty sounding that it,s addictive!
I have zippers Tmax on my bike and zippers said , do Not put torque cones in. They said it could screw with the u2 sensors.
Really glad I went with the 39" cholos .

I wouldn't waste my money on torque cones. Doing the homemade lollipop trick will do at least as good as these. BCT is actually a combination of making a narrower section in your pipe and the lollipop. Not sure if it does anymore or not. Here's a site that has dynos of the lollipops set up differently compared to open exhaust: http://www.nightrider.com/biketech/exhaust.htm As you can see, they help, but there's still a big dip in torque between 2000 and 3500 rpm
