Default Exhaust sound

Will long tubes, an ORY, and SLP Loudmouth be rediculously loud only normal acceleration if on stock heads and cam?

yes. It will sound like very loud ****.

check out ls1sounds.com
also searching the site will give you a plethora of info. For the price of the cat back you could do true duals.

Hate it!! I have LT's and even have hi flow cats but it's way to loud and obnoxious. I've got a Magnaflow muffler that is used in their catback on the way...going to fab it in to the loudmouth.

Yeah, it'll be obnoxiously loud. Imagine a dump truck dragging some metal garbage cans down the road.
Now, if you already have the loudmouth & are contemplating lt's & ory, then just swap out the resonator for a moroso spiral flow muffler (they are the same size). I ran this setup before I got my duals, and it sounded pretty good.

its not obnoxious i have the setup and yes its raspy but its not unbearably loud at all, im m6 so that helps, but im also 18 and like the be able to hear the car. its more of a preference thing, if you like a car with some growl its good but if youd like to be quieter than its not for you and u should replace the resonator for a new muffler or go with another catback

^ like to be able to hear the car? im 19 and have just the catback and its damn loud. not while cruising at constant speed with music on but under normal acceleration i can hear it with music, well.

what did you already order it? according to the sig you did. its going to have a lot of high pitched pops to it and be very loud. if you still can, id try to at least switch to lm2 before they send it. kinda pointless to make this thread after ordering it...

I already ordered it and it's here. Just has to get put on in a few days. If it is too loud for my liking, I'll just take the resonator off and weld in a chambered muffler. I chose it mainly because it flows pretty well and was cheap compared to the magnaflow I was looking at.

Did you order the SLP LT's package? If so, well I can only speak for myself and say I like the way it sounds. Read my sig and you can see what I have. To me it sounds like my TA growls. Some people here like it some don't. Some guys where I live ask me what brand I have and so far I got alot of compliments on how mean my **** sounds. So whether you get compliments on your exhaust sound really don't matter if it's positive or negative. It boils down to what you like because you the one that's spending the money. Every car has a different personality due to the owner.

I didn't get the SLP LT's. Too rich for my blood. I got Jet Hot LT's and Jet Hot ORY. I pretty much know it'll be loud as **** WOT. It's good that mufflers are so easy to change as well so that helps out a lot if I want to experiment.
