Experiment gone bad..need help
Ok, so I have an 07 SG, I wanted to go true dual, but not get too loud. So I figured I'd try the Vance and Hines headers, and use the stock muffs, hoping to gain a little sound with a nicer looking setup.
Well....it sounds like $%^%$#$%^.! So I need to get some slipons. I don't mind a bit of noise, but I don't want it to be as loud as say Rhinehardts. I like the look of a slashup, like the Road Glide. Was thinking maybe Rush with 1.75 baffles...will it be too loud, or maybe the Peacemakers?
My Father inlaw has an 06 Ultra with the same headers, with SE slipons, and they are too loud for my liking.
Suggestions?

a friend of mine has the V&H headers with SE cans on his EGS, personally I think it sounds great, quieter than my neighbors rhineharts with a nice tone to it, though ever so slightly higher pitched, imho...

I cut open my stockmufflers off my 07 EG... the leftmuffler is a dummy has a very small outlet, the righthand mufflerhas a BIG one...I think if you ran stockmufflers with true duals for very long you might damage your engine. IMOA

I also have Rush 1.75 on a set of Bassani true dual headers. This is as loud as I want to be. If you are looking for something a little bit more mellow try the street legal Screaming Eagle slipons. I had a set on briefly and they are not bad. In fact I kept them even when I bought the Rush mufflers. I thought I might put them on for a trip where listening to loud pipes can be annoying.

Be advised that the VH tru duals make all of the slipons louder than they are with stock headers, ask me how I know. I've probably tried six different mufflers looking for quiet and nice. Wild pigs too loud with the small baffle , Had rush too loud, S&s spo's nice sound, very deep but still a little loud, now I've got a set of SE street perfomance pipes coming and hopefully they'll be just right. Just keep in mind that the duals will make quiet pipes noisey.
