Are you aware that if you remove the baffles, you will loose power in the low-mid RPM range?

Check these out http://www.bigcitythunder.com/pages/screamin-eagle.html I bought a set of their baffles for my Big Growls and I couldn't be happier. Great product and I would reccommend them to everyone. Keeps the mid-range there and still loud as hell.

BCT's are the way to go with those pipes.
This is what mine sounds like:

I disagree. I love the sound, and you do pick up a bit of top end, but the mid-range goes to pot. It would likely be worse with no baffles.

I'm just saying what I feel. My biggest fear with going to drags was losing power. When I found these baffles I was super happy b/c when they were in it feels no different than my SE slip-ons. He said he just wanted it louder anyway so these would be the way to go.
