I need everyones opinion on this!

Im stuck trying to decide on which can to get, I ride an 08 polaris IQ Shift. I really want something with more of a deep throatier sound rather then a high pitched screech. Basicly I don't want my ears to be bleeding after a full day of riding, Oh yeah and where I sled which is in NH there is a decibel limit but I'm not to concerned about that as long as my sled doesnt sound like a cruise missile going mach 3. I have been thinking of somthing like a Sno-Stuff Rumble Pack or maybe an SLP but I'm not really sure maybe there is a different kind you know of for a better sound. So please guys if you have any ideas please let me know thanks.

I'm checking on the dB limit law for you.

Any mods will make it louder. There are a LOT of aftermarket makers out there. Do a search and see.
