Answer a Question

I've read the other questions and answers above, I'm really wanting my 2009 vstar to be louder. That's the main objective. The stock pipe with baffles out isn't loud at all. Will this be louder by a lot or is that more of an engine / pipe combo? Also is there anything else I need or do I just install new pipes and it's ready to roll? As you can tell, I'm a newb.
