Default Muffler Swap

So I ordered a set of BBK LT's and their y pipe. Now, I currently have an LM1 on my car, so I know its gonna be loud and sound like dick. I have an LM2 sitting in my garage. My question is, should I just swap in the LM2 or should I get a powerstick or sweet thunders? The sweet thunder and powerstick both sound good. If I get one of the latter, which one should I go with (PS or ST) and which length muffler do I need to replace the LM1 resonator?

i like the lm2 personally. wont cost you anything to try it since you've already got it in your garage.

do the LM2 for now and save up for a sweet thunder. i think a shop will have to cut your exhaust pipe to make it fit
