I know this is to personal taste but would like a few suggestions, thanks for a great site.

Nothing beats the sound of CFR's or Bassani DNT's. if you leave your cats in your header pipe, they are quieter, but only because their tone's are a lower sound frequency. (The rumble you crave) De-cat them, and they really wake up, but the rumble remains. The rinehardt's have a higher frequency tone. Not to hurt anyone's feelings, but I'm not a fan of their sound.

October issue of Baggers Magazine has a great review of 30 pipes, Including some Dyno and Sound Level results on 12 of them.
I have to be honest, I didnt know that simply changing pipes could increase HP and Torque as much as it did in their results, though I guess at an increased sound level.

I put the CVO slip on I got from eBay, sounds good still thinking about removing cat to get rid of some heat.

If I remove cat and put K&N stock replacement filter will I need to go with a tuner?

The CVO mufflers was a good call look great, maybe need just a touch more sound, after a lot of reading sounds like cat removal will be the ticket.

Thanks to everyones help.

I added a K&N filter and tuner, bike runs great for the last 2-1/2 years.

I have the same set up minus tuner, which did you get and which tune, if you don't mind me asking
