Default Baffled by Baffles

Im wanting to replace my stock screaming eagle baffles with some that are louder, and theres a company called Big City Thunder that has a baffle thats not only suppose to be loud but also, according to them, and the dyno, increase power a little. Has anyone out there have any first hand information about BCT? I have an 06 Deluxe.

Default RE: Baffled by Baffles

Yeah man I just installed a set of Thunder monster baffles in a set of V&H BSS pipes I have. I was running no baffles in those and heard of these baffles. I just put them in and love the sound. Have not had a chance to ride them yet, but form what I hear its adds to the torque and gives a little low end back to me again with the back pressure. I'll have it dynoed in the next month or soo, once all this damn snow is gone and can let you know the real difference.

Good luck

Where did you get the Thunder's from? I have the Quite Baffles in my BSS's now. Do the Thunder's have a deeper tone?

Thanks for tha reply. The Thunder company say the Screaming Eagle II pipes are made to install their baffle with no problem, butthe S E's I have are going to be a little different. Hog Alley here in Round Rock, Tx say they've never installed any so they cant tell me anything. Glad to hear some positive input.

Sure, I forget the place I got mine from, I think all I did was a search for thunder city baffles through yahoo and it came back with a home page for them, got them right from them.

It is very easy to make up your own version Of Thunder city baffles. There is an excellent permanent post in the Exhaust section of this forum describing how to do it.

I made up a set of lollipops and had a plumbing supply store order me in the right size copper pipe reducers. The full cost was about $20.
