Question 4" Straight Pipe, Yes or No?

I've got a few things on their way so I can piece together my own 4" exhaust. I ordered a Walker 21471 and I am debating about putting the thing on. I'm concerned about this supposed wistle from the muffler that a member says he's having with the little bro of the 21471, the 21468.

I would like to save the $100, but I want the truck to have an agressive, but not annoying sound to it. IMO if I can hear the exhaust over the forceful knocking of the Cummins cruising down the highway, it's too loud.

I only want to do this exhaust job once, and I know ultimately every individuals "taste" for the sound of the exhaust is unique, but I'd appreciate some input. Muffler or not?

Thanks Ryan
