Default Slipons and remap

Hey Guys,
Just bought my wife an 06 Deluxe. I have a couple of questions. One about the exhaust and one off topic.
I have done a search and results were all over the map.
My wife wants a little more sound than stock. She has no desire for A/C mods, etc. So we are talking slipons only. It is necessary to remap?????? Not looking for PC or SERT. However, will do that before I pay $150.00 for a flash. Thanks in advance



Off topic question:
Does anyone make arider backrest for the Deluxe???

I'm running SE slipons and didn't remap. Not the ballsiest bike in the world, but sounds and runs fine.

Most aftermarket pipes that don't require industrial ear protection also don't require remapping. BUT, depending on which pipes you get, remapping anyway could gain you a bit more power.

Dont' concur. Do the stage one A/C and remap. Doing the muffs only will release back pressure on the cylinders and destroy off idle low end torque, which is where most of us ride. Sure, the bike will sound and run fine, it just won't run the same. Doing the A/C and remap will bring the exhaust pressure back up to design. I also have noticed that muffs only will cause alot more popping and backfire.
