If you want to be loud, just toss on some 12" extensions off the collectors dumped. Either one is going to be loud, it doesn't matter which you get. You can always run straight pipes back with and X-pipe, then if things ever get to loud for you, a muffler shop can then just add in some mufflers after the X-pipe.

I was running 3 inch straight pipe off the Ory for a while. It sounded sick especially with the cam, but it didn't have the low end torque it had with the full catback on so I reinstalled it.

I am about to do this same thing this weekend. I am going to take off my catback and y pipe and cut the y pipe at the bend to create the extensions. I hope it takes off maybe 50lbs. What is the difference in sound of having it dumped vs. straight, more rasp, deeper tone, etc?

if your talking about running straight pipe off of long tubes dont worry about an H or X especially w/ no mufflers going to be run.
sounds like your going for loud factor
just run 3'' pipe 12'' extensions
you'll be very loud

At least one person with good sense. It'll sound like ***, thats how it will sound. And as already mentioned, the engine runs better and makes more tourque with an actual exhaust insalled.
Loud does not = fast, just anoying.
