Flowmaster with turndowns or tailpipes straight out the back?

Which do you think would sound better? The way I have it with the dumps or with tailpipes?

Flowmaster recommends that you have at least 10 inches of tail pipe for best performance. The dumps sound good but you get the loud interior noise. The tail pipes will quiet down and the inside. I have my pipes dumped after the rear end, and it still sounds good. Also keeps the inspectors from making a fuss.
