Default American Custom retrofit mufflers

Can anyone verify this statement from American Custom?
"If your bike has a cat in the muffler it will say “USA CATALYST” on the bottom of the pipe at the end of the paragraph explaining what the pipe is. "

I checked my stock 09 mufflers and they do not say this. When I bought my bike last year I asked where the cat was and was told in the muffler. I had the stage one done and got Cycle Shack slip ons. No where can I find the USA Catalyst on the stocks and wondered if this was true of all of the 09's?

I started a thread about the American Custom retrofit mufflers a couple of weeks ago--seems like a good product (saw it at a bike show on HDTV) but couldn't find anyone that has seen their product or could comment on them. Hoping someone else has hard/seen these? Great idea if they work. Just hope they're loud and improve performance.

I saw them on HDTV, Two Wheel Thunder was the shows name, that was what sparked my interest.

2 wheel thunder shows them all the time (they must be a sponsor) personally (if you shop around right) for $100 more you could have real pipes.. I shopped around like made and found my sideshots BRANDNEW for about $400.00and I installed them myself

I have them on my 2010 RKC and they definately make a difference. The sound is very deep and throaty. Not as loud as I would have thought, but its definately worth the money. On my wifes 09 1200 custom, I put short shots. Now these are very loud!!!
