I did this on my firestorm and it ran absolutely fine, if not better! i had an underseat pipe on mine though, check my gallery theres a couple of pics of it in there...

Well its 'as loud' as having the two cans, but having both revolutions of the two pistons going through one can gives a slightly different sound as you have both 'beats' through the one can, i personally used to have a grin from ear to ear every time i took it up to the red line!
