Default 39 inch cholos

Just finished installing my 39 inch cholos and they seem a little louder to me than my 36 inch. Are they or is it just me. I know a few of you guys have had both what do you think

My 39's were louder than my 28.5's.But my 28.5's had baffles and my cholos did not.Did you get baffles or non baffles.

I ordered them with baffles.they are just a little louder then the 36 inch.I was thinking maybe because they are a little further behind me that I am picking up a little more with the position of the longer pipes. I Am not complaining In fact I like it very much

I the 28.5"ers then jumped up to the 39"ers... To me the 28.5's sounded loder because they were closer.... both have baffles.

I have some 36 sharktails (no baffles ) from freedom performance and they are pretty loud. Can't stop smiling.

nothing to seal not needed they fit snug and are clamped had nothing on the 36 and had no problems. the back section fits over the front and slides in about a good two inches and is barrel clamped tight. no leaks no problem
