For 2007 models?? Like you, I have a 2007 XL1200L and I can assure you I don't have cats in my mufflers. BTW I opened up my muffers a bit using this: https://www.homedepot.com/p/Grip-Rit...SPKE/100156844

Hope you are right on model year.
As for the Xied and Vied from what I read they affect only closed loop fueling, as I understand that means pretty much constant throttle and NOT accelerating or decelerating, correct? Seems to me, not getting the extra fuel when accelerating would hurt performance more than a little. Or did I misunderstand something?

OK so an update. I bought a set of factory mufflers off ebay and will experiment on those. Will start by removing the baffles, enlarging the holes in them and welding them back in place. For fuel I went with the Vied since it has slight adjustability. So I will have less than $200 in it and will see what we see.
Based on the majority of what I have read I am reasonably hopeful for the outcome. I will update when installed and tested.
