I hate to be the THAT guy, but...

Of the two exhausts readily available, which one is louder? Ideally, can we find two owners with decibel meters and aftermarket exhausts.

There is another exhaust coming soon. Keep an eye out for updates on the WORKS "Smarter" exhaust.

Smarter Exhaust:

(1) Retains the flex pipe to prevent cracking from the engine rocking back and forth
(2) Significantly larger cannister size (and, as a result, quieter both at idle and under load)
(3) Hidden tip (like stock)
(4) Larger than stock piping diameter

Go figure - as you were typing this I was uploading pictures of my new exhaust. What did I think of for the name? I called it a Smarter Exhaust because it was cheap. I'll go see if I can change my captions.....

Please consider a twin tip center exhaust outlet, only quieter... maybe close to the stock sound levels. I'll buy it!!!
