Got the Rush SB2's = Three inch on Left and 2.5 on the right - This is what Rush recommends when leaving the Cat IN - and they say a stage one CAN be done If the rider chooses..
my question - and it has been answered here by others - what can be gained by Me doing a stage one while leaving the cat IN and having the Rush SB2
opinions are I gain really nothing??

Best initial bang for the buck on these bikes is to remove the cat and clip on an VIED. Get better sound and better throttle response. No cat gets rid of a bunch of unwanted heat in the exhaust and VIED lets the engine run much cooler too.
Stock air filter is free enough flowing for these mods, so no need to change it out except for looks (stock AF looks good enough for me).
Once the cat is removed, the stock muffler may sound good enough for you, and you are done.
All the mufflers will sound and flow better once the cat is removed. The cat does not restrict the flow much, but it does kill the desired Harley thunder.
