Default Borla XR-1 Racing muffler

How would this muffler sound with Long tubes? I was about to order an aerochamber but I did some research and now im torn between the two.

I have one for sale cheap if you decide to go with the XR-1. It had a real nice sound to it, eliminated the rasp too. I just took it off to do true duals. LMK if your interested
