Default How much more torque with quite baffles?

Bike in question is in Sig. How much more torque would I get by changing to quite baffles in my V&H short shots? Anyone have any knowledge or experience with this?

I have Sideshots on my 08 1200C. I rode it for a week or so before getting the quiet baffles. I cant give you a number, but I had a noticeable gain in low end power. Plus it sound much deeper and better IMO.

I'm MUCH happier with the sound now that the qb's are in. It was just a little too pitchy without the qb's. Had to punch in new numbers in the FuelPak, but that was easy enough. I'd recommend the qb's.

No dyno data, but noticed a solid gain in torque. Really big gain in sound tone - Hey, if sounds better, it must pull better.
