Default Help please!!!!!!
Hey guys I just finished installing some samson mini cholos. My problem is there is no snap to it.. It sounds like if it has baffles but it dont .. I ordered sa/ 434.. I did install torque cones.. Is that killing my sound.. I am taking about when you let off the gas and you get that jayk brake sound.. Its not there.?? My prior pipes were freedom performance shark tails and they were great. I am just confused????? I have a 2007 classic springer

You're sure there's no baffles??

Ya.. I'd take out the torque cones and see what you have.. They should be deafening

In my experience, shorter pipes make more decel rumble than longer pipes. The longer pipes should help some with low RPM torque though.
