Are the sounds for those exhausts all the same and only the tips are different?

Thank for all the answers. I will do some research on the RPI exhaust
I have it and its being installed soon, its a great looking and sounding exhuast and the dyno showed good gains for the cost.
Go through trinity and im sure he can hook you up.

Have you contacted them to see if they have any plans or if a custom fab job is needed to make it happen?

They all sound different and you can choose different tips. Here is a video of my quad magnaflow with eisenmann tips.

I am not going for the quad set-up though. So I will either buy the 14816 or the 14862. Does anyone know which sounds better?
And how much HP loss are we looking at here? Not more than 10 right?

Can that 10hp loss be felt?
very much so, especially when you get higher in the rpm's. Youll feel it lag and struggle a bit. Atleast this was the case for me when I drove one with a mag exhaust on it compared to my stock one
