Default Rinehart and Screaming Eagle Slip Ons

Bought my 2012 RK with Screaming Eagle Slip Ons, remap had already been done, high flow air filter with back of air breather removed. The screaming eagles were too quiet, bought 4" rineharts because was told they were much more aggressive sounding. Overall disappointed with them, not much change in sound over the screaming eagles. I was trying to avoid doing a header change or trying to drill out the cat. converters. Can I do anything to these rineharts to make them sound better? Is the power loss really noticeable if you remove baffles? Thanks.

Default Cat

Going to have too get rid of cat if you want louder sound.its no big deal to cut a window out of header,clean it out than carry to a welding shop and get them to weld the window back in.

Depends on the baffle. Is it plugged? Small diameter baffle? Many pipes the baffles are replaceable. For instance, if you have 2" baffles, replace it with a 2 1/2", it will be louder.
