Default Exhaust Issue

I have a 2003 Road King Classic with Reinhart Duals. I recently did the 1550 upgrade and had the new mapping and had it dyno'd. Now I have constant back popping on deceleration. The HD mechanic and dyno guru say it is the result of the non standard exhaust system.

Has anybody else had this problem and was able to resolve it?
