question about volume
Okay, my current mods are:
gutted cat ( bought SuperFlow header )
FL-ViED-10 (cheap tuner)
Twin Cobra Slashdown mufflers
My current volume is quiet unless I'm accelerating then it sounds great.
If I add on a Ness big sucker, will that change the volume for my normal cruise sound? Right now, when cruising ( non-highway ) it's very, very quiet. When I cruise above 75, the volume picks up a little bit.
Thanks for any info.

Yeah, it must be. Stupidly, I followed the advice of a guy at the dealership. He said V&H aren't great quality and talked me into buying the Cobras. 
I don't have much money to spend on the bike... wife just not cool with it right now ( I'm only 36 and we have 4 kids, can't just go crazy ).

You might try working a trade with someone who is looking for something quieter than what they are currently running.

2013 Street Glide here
1st i decatted - it changed the exhaust note slightly
2nd installed VIED - no change in sound - no more decel popping
3rd - installed big ness - seems a little more responsive according to the butt dyno
Getting ready to order some slip ons- not sure what kind yet... but the point is - the only time i notice a change in sound was when i removed the cat.
I KNOW i will see a sound change when I install CFRs or Rhineharts - just cant decide which way to go.
