Boarzilla vs Fatcat for a 117

From all the reading I've done so far I have decided to replace the Pro-pipe on my 117" Road King with either a Boarzilla or Fatcat. It seems like I'm right on the fence between the two for a 117" engine. It has S&S 625 cams and 10.8-1 compression. I also understand that there are a couple of different ways to change the baffles between the 2 pipes depending on the engine size. I'm most interested in low to mid torque. The D&D guy said to go with the Borzilla but a couple of posts sounded like the Fatcat may be better for a 117". As for sound, loud is OK as long it's a low note and not tinny. Help!

I believe it's been said here that on a 117" to go with the Fatcat for torque and the Boarzilla for hp. Smaller (1.75") primaries on the Fatcat help torque.

Thanks guys,

I ordered the FC with the performance baffle. I also ordered the ghost pipe. I'm anxious to see how it looks......
