Hi all. I hate to start another exhaust thread, but....

I have been shopping for a new exhaust for my 2012 FXDF as part of a planned stage 1 upgrade. Just shopping at this point as there are not many 2-1 options available for the 103. I've done a bit of research using the search function and picked up a lot of info, which is why I'm deciding to go 2-1, but I have one question remaining.

When comparing the Thunderheader, Bassani Road Rage, and the D+D FatCat, I can't really figure out which is loudest, quietest etc. as I've not been able to compare side by side. If the folks on the forum have any thoughts on this question, I'd love to hear them. Thanks.

The new pro pipe is cheaper and makes great power.

Let me guess..the louder the better?

I believe Vance & Hines Pro Pipe for 2012 Dyna's are not available yet.

To make matters more confusing are the array of baffles if you go that route. I've been frustrated waiting for V&H, so I'm looking for the D&D Fat Cats for my 2012 Street Bob. Loud is nice, but I want the better performer with a bit of noise reduction. I've lost 20% hearing in the right ear from my Sportster running RB racing pipes, which are really sweet. I wear ear plugs too.
