Hello

Personally I'd do away with cherry bomb and get a sportex back box to go with your tube. All depends on taste, it'll be quieter and I think you'll get a nicer note, plus better compression compared to a glasspack.

If you like your glasspack, as above put a centre box back in :D

If you do get a sportex back box i wudnt use a race tube with it, will still be loud. Use a middle box :)
