Default Need pipe suggestions

Hey all, I have a 2013 Ultra Limited. Before I left the dealer I put on 4" Rinehart slip ons because I wanted sound. I have to say they weren't much louder than stock. So I just swapped them out for Python 3.5" and they're not much better. I'd like to please have suggestions on how to get louder. Thanks.

Quit playing around with the "slip-ons".

Get rid of the cats. Most pipes will be quiet(er) with the cats in the headpipes.

Get rid of the cat. It restricts the sound considerably.

Gut the cat! Install V&H Power Dual header, Ness Big Sucker air cleaner and an H-D SEPST tuner. That will wake up your slip ons. Worked well for my '12 Road King.

Replace the header or gut the cat. I felt the same way when I put my monster rounds on, it was very tame and sounded like a stock exhaust, then I changed the header to a vance and hines power dual and it woke right up.

Well, seeing as this is a brand-damn-new forum and we've never discussed this before.....


Call Fuel Moto and get yourself a new headpipe and a set of their mufflers. Or a set of Fatshotz (which are the goddamn shiznit).

Or hey, just take a drill to your stock head pipe, totally screw it up, and slap whatever mufflers make it the loudest.



FREEBIRD!



Yes, in fact, I'm sick of these threads.

Thanks for the suggestions. If I take the cats out will I have to change anything in the computer?
