Default V&H Pro Pipe Baffle Mod ?

I'm possibly considering a VH pro pipe for my 09 FLHT but wonder about the baffle mod? Is it as simple as wrapping/covering a couple rows of baffle holes? Is their drilling/welding involved to the baffle? Thanks for input..

Apparently, their is a mod that takes away/reduces the TQ dip that is exhibited on some tunes in the 2500rpm area. Many say its the tune/many say its the baffle. I see some mods as simple as covering (2) rows of the baffle holes while others say drilling out a .25 size hole helps but don't get where that would be? I also don't know if the baffles are different in the 09 FLHT model pipe vs. other pro pipes ??

To get rid of that torque dip you need to slow down the exhaust gas escaping out of the pipe. My pipe has a bad torque dip...........ditching it for a SuperTrapp
