I have 2in staights on mine with no baffles. The sound great for 50 bucks. They sound even better now that I put the jet kit in and I dont get that obnoxious backfire on decel

RB Racing LSR 2:1. Definitely Loud. Definitely different sounding than all the main stream stuff (Vance & Hines, Cycle Shack, SE etc.) And definitely one of the best performance pipes.
