Default cherrybomb glasspack question

Any of you that are familiar with the newer rifled 'cheese grater' design, as opposed to the old mesh style, any idea what way would sound better? They say its reversible, and I found this pic on their site. I have mine on flowing the opposite way of the pic, as it seemed more free flowing, and I had no reference when I put it on.

I tried it their way first, it sounded pretty quiet but was also brand new, but I flipped it and clamped it on my way. I've had it on for months now and I've always wondered what it would sound like now that the glass is gettin burned out, I keep thinking about just tryin it but I wanted to know what you guys thought before I crawled under a dirty snowy wet truck

well I'm wonderin if there is any truth to the whole 'high frequency sound' gettin absorbed by the muffler, or just a marketing thing.... Seems like if that's how it works, it would give it a deeper tone. Doesn't have to be any louder, just curious about what it would be like

i dunno about glasspacks, i heard the aeroturbine3030 is like a glass pack but they have way better flow and sound and will always sound the same no packing , and there built too help amplify the sound of the cam too sound more beefy ...

i think will be running duels with 2 of them with my headers

well I have a Gibson stainless steel dual in/dual out muffler in my basement, And it has the same type of design in the inside of it, but dual chambers that cross over each other. Was gonna put it on in the first place, but Since I only have a single in/single out setup for now, I went with the Cbomb. When I do duals I'll probably use the Gibson, but I'll be askin yas the same question about it down the road because it looks to be reversible as well

well before I put the cbomb on I was thinkin about takin it to a shop and makin a couple Y adapters for the ends of it, basically makin it a single in single out. Or even the single into it, then dual tailpipes. You guys know if that would be worth bothering with? God only knows when I would get around to doing true duals, maybe if I come across some headers cheap, but ?
