Default GMMG catback questions

Well right now I currently am running

GMMG catback
ORY pipe
American racing 1 3/4 headers

The car is loud I know and I absolutely love it

But...... Will be moving into a condominium (sp) complex and probably will have to either swap it out for something quiter or my question is ......

Installing the center mount tips with the 90* bends quiet it down at all ?

I highly doubt it but I really don't want to get rid of the GMMG

get the catted y-pipe for the ARH LTs. I ran them on my old car with an LM1 catback, sounded great and not too loud. I would imagine you are going to spend just as much if not more trying to get CME parts and valance, not too mention I really don't see the 90s taming your setup.

I want a GMMG, I love the sound.

If you decide to sell it, let me know.

A set of high flow cats help ALOT. I use to have thunder bolt cats with my long tubes and loudmouth 1 and it wasnt that loud. With the cats off its just insane.

The cme i have found will smooth out the sound a lil,nothing crazy noticeable though, you could put a magnaflow bullet in the i pipe, it will still be on the loud side but sound much cleaner and smoother,

I may try that anyway since it sounds like chaos at times.

My foreman and service manager ran out into the shop when i started my car once because they though a car fell off the lift
