BCT Baffles
Hello everyone. I've been reading the forums for a few months now, but this is (sort of) my first post. (Replied to one a few minutes ago). The forum has been really helpful so far. For my 1st bike, I bought an 01 883C last year that has V&H straightshots on it (baffle-less). That's as much as I can tell that is aftermarket. I replaced the paper AC with a K&N about a month ago, and man what a difference! After searching the forum for a while, I realized I was still missing out on power in the low-mid RPMs and decided to get the BCT Thunder Monster baffles (I still wanted loud). I went for my first long ride with them in today & am sooo glad I spent the $90 on them.
Here's my question: The baffles are at 4" in right now (pre-drilled holes), but the instructions say that 6" is usually optimal. Does installing them 2" farther in make that much of a difference? I'd rather not remove my pipes and drill new holes for an insignificant improvement.

RE: BCT Baffles
That is the general sweet spot. It would really depend on your pipes and engine set up. Give them a call at BCT and they might have some incite for you. When I called they were very helpful. I love mine. Nothing, I mean nothing sounds better. The performance factor is there as well. Some will scoff but that don't change the results everyone I've heard talking about the ones they've installed.
