97 vmax i bought came with supertrap pipes

[CNN SUCKS DONKEY]

aside from sound what if any diffrence comes with removing the screwed on baffles ? will it loose/gain any power-torque, float the valves etc or is this strictly for hiperformance modified bikes ? anyone cruise without baffles ?

It gets super loud and doesn't make any more power. There is a chart for how many discs to use somewhere. I ran 4-6 for sound. Some guys run 8. I think open is like 12-16 or something like that.

For hp gains, you will need a true aftermarket exhaust. With slip-ons, no gains.

The main area of exhaust restriction on the Vmax is the stock head pipes themselves.
