Default True Duals

I am debating on whethere or not to buy some true duals for my RKC and I am debating on what to get. I was first thinking about just getting header pipes and leaving my Wild Pigs on, but now I kinda want a different sound. I was leaning towards some T-Rex tru duals. Everyone around has Rhineharts, and i dont want what everyone else has. Do you lose a lot of low end with the T-rexs? Are they any other opinions out there? Thanks.

I'm removing my Rineharts tommorrow and replacing them with a Fat Cat. I'm hoping to get a little more torque on the bottom end so maybe I can use 6th a little more.

I like my RINEHARTS. Nice tone, and the bike runs great. My brother-in-law has V/H on his STREET BOB and he has no complaints. Those have great sound as well.
