Default D&D Fat Cat sound vs stock

I have decided on the D&D Fat Cat 2 into 1 one for my 07 EG, but I am not sure if I should go with the standard baffle or quiet baffle. I want loader and deeper than stock, but I don't want it as loud as a Thunderheader (buddy has TH and it is too loud for me). So, is the standard baffle as loud as the Thunderheader? Also, is the quiet baffle louder than stock?

Thanks!

Quiet baffle is definitely louder than stock.

Can't comment on thunderheader but I have the "standard" baffle and it's loud but I like it that way.

I switched from standard to quiet baffel, mush louder than a stock or SE pipes, not sure about thunderheader though. I love the pipe.

I have the quiet baffle on my RG for about 10K. On a scale of 0 to 10 if the stock is a 3 the quiet baffle is a 5. It's loud enough that after a long ride I wish it were a little quieter. Looks and runs great!

Quiet baffle is only quiet when compared to the standard baffle, it's not quiet by any stretch when compared to the stock exhaust.

I started out with the standard baffle and didn't like the tone or sound from it, so I quickly put in the quiet baffle and it's much better. Deeper and not tinny at all, and I can hear the radio with no problems at all.

Go with the quiet baffle.

I have the standard baffle on my 00 RK. Sounds great.

If you want a pipe a little quieter than the D&D look at the supertrapp.
