Default Vance and Hines question

I am going to purchase a new exhaust for my scooter. I really wanted the double barrel exhaust 18007 but it is on back order till May. I am looking at the big shot long or staggered or the straight shot staggered. The straight shots are much cheaper but will I be regretting them later? Power numbers are what I am most concerned with as they both are quite loud. The 18007 are tamer but offer nice torque numbers also. I know there must be info on this but the search box gave me nothing.

If your looking for a performance pipe/exhaust, or those "power number" pipes as you call them, then forget the 2-2 pipes and start looking at the 2-1 type exhaust like the Vance and Hines Pro Pipe or the D&D Fat Cat.

Their site shows $585. :-( $495 and the choose would be made.
I don't really like the look of 2-1 and they sound like a VW in my opinion.
