A cat converter in the slipons? probably not. you are probably looking at the baffles. With a stage 1 upgrade without a tuner the bike will breath easier and run a little cooler but you won't notice much if any power increase. For a power increase and for the bike to run the coolest possible you need a tuner so you can adjust the AFR and timing.

I wouldn't get too excited over a tune with just a stage 1. If you're original slipons/exhaust were stock then you may see a modest increase. If nothing else the bike will sound better!

There is no cat on an '02. The '06 had a cat in the left side slip on. (I believe it was the left side). Cats in the headpipes didn't start until '10. They are CVO mufflers from a newer CVO bike ('06-up) so I wouldn't expect anything spectacular from them. You said you already had a stage 1, so what pipes are on there now? Also, is you RK fuel injected and you have the dealer download? Or is it carbed?
