Default Just ordered Rumbler, what to expect?

I just ordered the TSP Rumbler. I've had my TA for a while, but I ran into some financial trouble, so I'm just now getting the chance to start dumping some money into this thing. For those of you who run the Rumbler, what should I expect? I've listened to a bunch of sound clips but obviously it's not the same hearing it on the computer, and none of my buddies have the same exhaust. Also, anyone who runs an ORY with it, was the ORY worth the extra cash?

it sounds pretty good on idle, i'd like it to be a little louder on idle, but give it any gas and its very loud, especially when driving its loud. and its all drone. remember it doesn;t have a big muffler for the sound to expand and sound really nice and low. it just drones, and when i get on it from about 2300rpm up to 3500rpm the exhuast makes like a rattling sound, not like the pipes themselves rattling, but the exhuast sound kinda sounds funny, but once you get past that little bit it sounds really nice at WOT, infact with your foot to the floor, just imagine a quieter open header sound.

If your ever in Fredericksburg let me know and you can come listen to it.

Cant beat the price, good fit. With ORY i have rasp from about 2000-3000 rpm. But that is the Y pipes fault not the rumbler. If you dont like the sound you could change the muffler or fit two small mufflers in the tailpipe sections.

Is it like the factory exhaust where the Y pipe meets at the muffler or are there two separate mufflers because if I'm not mistaken (which I very well could be) but doesn't the LM have two separate tiny mufflers?

Rumbler has one bullet type muffler in the I-pipe (after the Y pipe and before the axle). LM has a resonator type muffler in the I-pipe. Both systems use one muffler.
