Well I finally went with TOR's and bought a pair off ebay and installed them last night. They have 1000 miles on them and are beautiful. My first impression was that they sound almost exactly like my bafflectomy job and I wondered if I blew 280 bucks for no good reason....then I went for a ride and understood the improvement in performance talked about. Alot more get up and go thru the gears. I'm pleased overall, but I could have easily stayed with my old pipes.

TOR's are straight thru, no restrictions, the Bafflectomy
sound nice, but still very restrictive.
TOR's make a big difference, I did the same thing you did.
