Standard Exaust vs. Center Dual Tip Exaust

I was looking at 4smartcar.com at the exaust they have there and they offer a Center Dual Tip Exaust. Just wondering if anyone here has that. And if you do have it on your Smart,

1) what does it do compaired to the standard exaust?
2) does it give it a little more of a sporty sound to the Smart? If it does, how much more (obnoxiously more or just a little more vroooom)?
3) Are you pleased with it?

Thanks everyone!

Not sure about the exhaust you mentioned but:

1) Mostly cosmetic. Tone slightly different most likely due to length of tube.
2) Very sporty sound (at least from my prototype DTH unit). "Obnoxious" or not depends on a number of factors: your taste, your experience, your age, etc.
3) Very pleased with mine.
