With stock manifolds, get the LM1. If you have headers or are planning them get something else.

Here is my car with Loudmouth...or LM1 as some people call it. This is with stock manifolds and Y-pipe. I'm in the middle of my LT Header/Catted Y-pipe install, so I'll soon have a new video of my new setup for everyone to listen too. Anyways, check it out.

LM1 + headers = bleeding ears loud. LM2 + headers = Loud when you want it

LM1+ stock manis = aggressive, moderately loud. LM2 + stock manis = basically stock sounding

At least that's what I've learned over the years...

i agree with everything except lm2 + stock manis = stock sound. my lm2 is much louder and deeper sounding than when it had stock catback, now lm1 w/ headers is a whole new beast in itself, but i love both.

I dislike the LM's period, they're to obnoxiously loud, and don't have a great tone, they just plain don't sound good. I've heard them on LT's / LS's / and an 04 Cobra - I never liked the sound.

Bad thing about the loudmouth system is you lose some clearance because of where the bullet sits. Plus it sounds like ****. If you want it to sound loud and shitty just go get a cut out.

The resonator isn't that much bigger than the pipe.
