Fat Cat with quiet baffle. The quiet baffle gives a bit more low end power and a deeper sound. Although it is called the quiet baffle, it is still pretty loud. When I got mine a few years back, Eastern Performance had the best price and free shipping, don't know about now.

You know .. I think you are on to something. I took off the OEMs and replaced them with Rush slipons with 2 inch baffles as part of Stage 1 mod. I like the noise ... because it wakes up the dinosaurs here in Fl and might save my life from being run over by a Lincoln Towncar driven by an 85 year old ... but I do think you need the backpressure to make low end tourque ... I've seen this on cars and proved out on dyno. Kids putting those idiot fat pipes on their Civics are killing what low end they might have had to start with.
Next year ... I'm going to look at a two into one ... with some backpressure in it .. might tone down the sound ... but I think ... well ... I'm pretty sure .. it will improve performance.

I was looking at those two also and went with the FatCat and never looked back. I originally went with the quiet baffle but when I had it dyno tuned the tuner said the quiet baffle hurts performance so I switched. I ended up liking the sound of the normal baffle over the quiet one. I do not buy into the quiet baffle giving you more low end power or a deeper tone at all.

I got the standard baffle. Love the sound. Great low rumble....and screams like hell when you get on it!
