I like the pipes loud but, I can't compare your db level with mine. So, your Howe's, I assume they have no packing ?
I'm looking at Howe, Classic Chambered and Firefly Performance Products. Firefly has the best two piece I've ever seen and the clamp is almost undetectable. Beautiful work but, I would get the one piece pipe. Check out the site for pretty pictures. With his pipe, the muffler is exposed meaning, it does not fit inside a 4" muffler housing.

Howe is the easiest to weld to a 3.5" collector since you won't need a tranistion on the front. 3.5" collector butts up nice to a 3.5" core muffler. The Howe actually does have a little bit of packing in there. Howes are way too loud in my and many other peoples opinion. I would definately go with Cobra Packs if you are going to modify your own. Remember, I made more noise with Howes, but did not make more power. My Howe pipes are hanging on the wall collecting dust.
If you want to just buy a nice pair of side pipes that look like art work, then definately go with Firefly Performance. The one piece pipes in stainless is actually a good bargain. I've seen them many times in person, and if I didn't make a hobby out of experimenting with them, I would have saved alot of money AND time just buying a set of polished pipes from Firefly. Firefly can even do a mill finish and get them ceramic coated for you. Welding stainless is a task in itself, if you do not know what you are doing, your welds will fail over time. Leave it to a pro.
