Default Looking for a bit more noise.

I have a 2012roadking with screaming eagle slash cut slip ons. Made it a little louder but not enough. Tried pulling the baffles to cut shorter and reinstall but couldnt get them out so im thinking of the old days where you just punch 2 holes in the restriction plate. Looking for advise before i do this..
ps. Im use to running straight pipes.

Better be careful in removing baffles as you can get your bike to a point (take it from me) where it will run very badly.

The EFI bikes aren't like the carb'ed bikes and you may have to either return to stock pipes/baffles of go to a expensive tuner or at least have your OEM tuner "flashed", if they will even do that in CA.
