Default Firebrand vs Rush Slip-ons

A little over a week ago I bought a 2017 Wide Glide. I’m looking to put some slip-ons on it until I can stack up the funds for a full exhaust and tune. I’m looking at Rush 3”, and Firebrand Loose cannon mufflers.

My Dad has Rush on his sporty (which I’ve logged quite a few miles on) and we’ve both been extremely pleased with them. From watching videos, I slightly prefer the sound of the Firebrand, but had never heard of them until I started looking for options for my bike.

Does anybody have experience with Firebrand exhaust, or care to weigh in on these options?

Thanks for the input! What bike are you running them on?

I use Rush with the biggest (2.25") baffles on my Fat Bob and they sound great. In my opinion better than most full exhausts I’ve heard. And they do also perform well. My friend has exactly the same bike as me and I got better power & torque after dyno compared to his Vance & Hines Shortshots.
