Default Cherry Bomb Vortex

Anyone running?
Getting Kooks Long tubes with kooks y pipe with high flow cats installed next weekend. Thinking of getting the cherry bomb vortex muffler or cat back next. What do you guys think? Will my neighbors hate me at 6:30am when I cold start?

How big is the muffler? Length wise?

Its gonna have some pretty good loudness to it...disturbing? I dont think so, LT headers and highflow cats tend to open up the noise..a x pipe will tone it down some if it turns out to be too loud for your taste

I'll get to drive it with the Long tubes and y pipe hooked up to the stock cat back before I make the decision. I may be satisfied with the extra rumble and not want the vortex but I doubt it.

Didn't like the Cherry bomb sound on someone else's truck. Couldn't quite put a finger on it, just sounded wrong. He got rid of the CB and installed a Borla. The Borla with single in and dual outs with turn downs sounds better at full song, and can set off the neighbors car alarms, and loud enough to annoy Prius owners. BTW its on a RCSB 4.8 with stock manifolds and cats. Just my .02.
What are the specs on your truck?
