The length determines the deepness of the tone I think... I don't think it has a big affect on the loudness though. I'm by no means an expert on glasspacks though, but I do like how they sound!

Do glasspacks of straight pipes sound better?

Glasspacks are much better than straight pipe- they take some of that nasty, raspy edge off.
