On a can for a 5.56 AR. Actually two of them, ARs, not two cans.
I'm looking at the YHM Turbo T2, mainly because it's pretty short at 5.5" and the pricepoint($400).
Is there a better choice in that size and $400-500 range?
It will be swapped between a 16" and a 18" AR.

I would consider Turbo K.
Most tests I've seen show sound reduction at the muzzle is lower on the T2, but often not that much difference at the ear.
The AR15 is loud anyway, and I would as a minimum wear plugs anyway. To me the goal is more to take the edge off.
 
In that price range I would give a good look at the Rex Silentium MG7. Similar length 5.6” and I would assume the MG7 is quieter due to its larger volume.
