Default Bassani Road Rage 2 into 1 Exhaust, Thoughts?

I'm considering giving up my current Vance and Hines Short shots for the Bassani Road Rage 2 into 1 exhaust but wanna know everyone's thoughts/reviews on the exhaust (performance, issues, sound, fit, etc.). Also I Ride a 2010 Fatboy Lo and was wondering if anyone had issues with this exhaust scrapping especially since mine is a lowered model?

What are you hoping to achieve with the switch?

I had them on my 13' Fat Bob, I thought the idle and under throttle sound was ok, hated the way it sounded under decal - it sounded like the pipe was gargling under water.
Have you looked at the D&D Fat Cat - I believe it outshines the Bassani's in every category

I'm trying to get a little more low end torque and yeah I've seen the D&D Fatcat but read a bunch of reviews by Lo owners that they had issues with the exhaust scrapping.
