    I think what he was saying is that the baffle itself should mount toward the front, while the washer side of the baffle should face the back.

    Well I got em in. I put them 6" in from the end of the muffler. Definately a improvement on performance. Not sure I like the sound. Seems to have a underwater tubey sound to them. Very loud and a lot of blatty reverberation when changing gears and on down throttle.

    So keep you eyes open, I might be having a half price sale.

    One thing you can try is moving them to different positions inside the pipe, or flip then backward. They will sound different in different locations, and vary from exhaust to exhaust.

    BCT Baffles

    I put a set of BCT Baffles in my 05 Wide Glide with V&H Big Shots Staggered and I love them. I wasn't happy with the sound of the stock baffles and performance was horrible with the baffles out. Now it runs great, has awesome torque and definitely has a unique sound. They are kinda loud but that's the way I like it. I will definitely buy them again.
