from outside the car it should sound the same...

by going from tips to turndowns (on the same muffler) the only real difference would probably be a bit more resonance inside the car from the sound reverberating off the ground and the car.

I had a cat back and then dumped it before my axle with a turn down. The dump is a little bit louder, and when u get on it, the dump makes it sound mean as hell. I had the TSP Rumbler, and I just bought another dynomax bullet, but went with a 12" instead of a 18" and imo it sounds a lot meaner and choppier. The dump makes my car sound meaner than what it really is.
