What kind of performance increase can you expect from removing the baffle from a stock raptor? Also is it a lot louder??

When I took it out of mine, I couldn't really tell a power difference. It made it sound throatier, but was still quieter than any aftermarket exhaust out there. But if you don't have the money for a pipe right now (like I did) It is kinda fun to have it a little louder.

Cool I'm doing that tomorrow so all you have to do is remove those 3 screws and pull it out??? My raptor is only about a month old so it shouldn't be to tough to pull it out.... and you can put the cap back on the end of the Exhaust right?

I think there is a screw under neith that holds the baffle in too, but not sure. You're not going to feel mmuch of a power gain and it's going to be a little louder but it will sound like a Raptor with the baffle taken out and not like a piped Raptor. Plan on destroying it getting it out.
