I along with a bunch of others have the Big radius 2 / 2. The sound IMO is awesome, yea I know everybody`s got `em..but if they sucked nobody would have `em.

had the v&h big radius




but changed to fishtail just because it fit the era i was looking for...



BUT if you go with the big radius, you gotta change the baffles to Big City Thunder baffles - they will set off car alarms just idling thru a parking lot

Have the 2-1. Love the throaty "muscle car" sound. Seems fairly mild til you crack it open.

You will get more power with the 2 into 1 however I like the look of the 2 into 2 better.

I had the V&H Pro Pipes and they sounded great, especially with the comp baffle. I now have the BR 2-into-1. I like the looks but the sound is a bit muted until you open up the throttle. Then she comes to life.

IMO the 2-2 look good, sound good, and give really good numbers too.

BSS great sound, with or without quiet baffles, don't bother if you live in a quiet neighborhood!
