In that case, you can forget about Magnaflow, especially if you plan to keep the cats.

Go with the LM1 or just a cutout, for maximum volume. If that's not loud enough, you'll need to ditch the cats.

I love my Loudmouth. It does cause a slight drone at first on the highway, but then you get used to it and love the sound.

I did have the Texas Speed true dual dumps. Super loud. Now I have the Kooks true duals out the back. Running no cats as well. It's still really loud, but not as much since it's all the way out the back and not under my a**. I am selling my true dual dumps if your interested. I am going to get some pics then post in the classifieds.

An E cutout might be a good alternative cause you can also control how loud you want it

Thats what I would do. Costs about the same as the cheapest catback on the market and outflows every single one of them. With cats and M6 its not a bad sound at all. Gets a little raspy with ORY and/or headers.

I have Magnaflow on my 98 Z28. Its sounds pretty good at idle, and opens up when you get on it. With that said I will likely be replacing it with a LM1 at some point in the future, they sounds alot meaner.

I love my magnaflow/cutout set up on my car. I had the magnaflow on my car when it as 100% stock and I liked it but it wasnt loud enough at idle. If you plan on keeping the stock exhaust do a lm1.

I have ORY with Hooker LT's and i agree it can be raspy, but fun. Also sounds decent with it closed. Only reason I'm voting electric cutout is cause it is extremely cheap.
