I think that the dragula might be the better choice. I cab always add the ghost pipe if I want the dual look. Also believe that the dragula will outperform and sound much better than my bub TDX straight 8's.

went thunderheader and i like it. not as loud as people say it is at all. especially when cruising on highway. i would actually like it a tad louder.

FYI, i have it heat wrapped then put the heat shields over that and my boot still burns by the rear brake.

No Frank didn't tune it; I used a SE Pro Tuner and have performed various Smart Tune "tweaks". There's not enough mile on the engine to get it Dynoed yet, hopefully by next week.
