FWIW this is the setup I have. I have a 2" tube all the way to the  
back. I crushed the Buick muffler I had behind the tank (better than  
crushing the tank) when I backed onto a large rock I missed in a  
reverse K turn. So I put the 2" Cherry Bomb back on. Sounds great,  
but loud. Theresa hates it and I agree with Frank. Long drives are a  
pain in the ears. Still looking for the right setup.
