Default switching out powerpacks with powersticks

Thinking of switching out my medium length 2.5" powerpacks with medium length 2.5" powersticks. Would this change up the sound much? Rasp? Exhaust setup in sig. TIA

I'm going to say not at all. I replaced the resonator on my old Loudmouth with a Powerstick hoping to tone it down after my header install and it sounded pretty much the same. I ended up replacing the whole set up with a Hooker cat-back. If you went longer it would maybe help a little, but would still be pretty loud. Are you looking to quiet it down?

not really tone it down, just give a better choppy cam sound. I feel like my powerpacks dont give it the tone, choppy sound like i want.

Powersticks are worth a shot, even though they are a straight thru design I personally think they sound better than just a bullet muffler. Plus for the price of them it's worth giving them a try.
