I am thinking that the 2-into-2 big radius might be a bit louder because you get sound sound "echo" or rebound off of the ground. They are pretty intense. I love the big, deep growl and would highly recommend them.
Some interesting information: They are pricey, they run hot even though they have a heat shield, I get quite a bit of attention due to the sound and the look. I bought them for increase in performance, but a longer pipe will do a bit more than a short pipe. They also were able to fit without moving my passenger peg. Small but interesting.

As I am not new to the forum, I am new to the Softail section. On Saturday I traded in my 2011 XL883N Iron (pictured below) for a Brand New 2012 Vivid Black Fat Boy Lo (pictured below) plus some cash, obviously.
My Iron had about 2,000 miles on it, as I only had it for about 3 months, and they gave me $7k for that bike on trade in (stealer started at $3,999 but I worked them up to $7k). They started at $18,900 for the Fat Boy Lo with ABS/Security, and through about an hour of negotiating, I got them down to $10k for the bike, with ABS/Security, Service Manual and 1,000 mile service thrown in.
I like to think I got a heck of a deal on the bike, and just from riding it home from the dealership, I couldn't be happier with my new purchase. Let me know your thoughts, and also what type of Mods you guys suggest I do right away. (No worries, the reflectors were the first thing to come off the bike!)
Thanks,
Barbs

The Lo is a cool scoot for sure. I think you will have a ton of enjoyment riding it. Have fun and stay safe.
