Default **UPDATE**I might be the only one to have done this... True dual setup with Madhammer

Ok guys so I dared to be different and try something new. Some may not agree with what I did or how I did the setup but, you gotta try new things right?

So here's what I had; BBK LT's no cats, into a 2'5" ORY. with a LM1. ******* loud and raspy but I enjoyed every bit of it. But I wanted something louder and more aggressive.

This is what I did; kept the BBK LT's and no cats. But did a true dual setup with an H pipe with 2'5" piping all the way back with two Madhammer chambered exhausts. (GMMG). So I'm not feeling the new sound. Doesn't sound as aggressive or mean like my first setup. It doesn't gargle like it used to and i think I regret changing it. But I'm glad I know how it sounds but I think I'm gonna go back to my old setup.

If you have any questions or comments ask away or let me know how much of a tool I am for doing something different haha. I can care less about the rude comments. I'm posting this to give other ppl some ideas and ones that may be curious. Thanks guys. I'm gonna try and get some videos of both setups but be patient.

Don't go back to your old setup. Just use 2 LM1 resonators in the new setup.

If you do want to go back to the Y (which will lose power over your current setup), instead do a 3" y pipe into a flowmaster merge then your LM1. It will be louder and make more power than your old setup but should help get rid of the shitty raspy sound that a LM1 has at anything other than idle.

I never thought about doing two LM1's and it sounds like a good idea. But yea I don't like these on here at all man. I had high hopes but unfortunately it was a disappointment. Thanks for the advice though, i think I might consider your idea.

Do you have a sound clip of the new setup? I recently put two SLP Loudmouth 1 resonators on my true dual setup, and it's really loud, but no rasp.

I've heard LM1s on duals in person on a decently modded Terminator Cobra. They are insanely loud, probably the loudest street car exhaust I have ever heard in person. Was riding shotgun when a guy raced the car that had that setup and when he went by even with the windows up the driver and I both winced.

I'm gonna try and get videos up of both today. If you have one of your setup, I'd love to hear it.

I have one with the old setup (Texas Speed bullets), but not one with the SLP Loudmouth 1's. I'll try and get one tonight it's not storming.

I have given up getting vids up as well. Just load them up on YouTube and share the link. I think that's the easiest way.

Hope this link works. This is the new exhaust.


And here's a flyby of the old setup.

I actually kind of dig the sound of the madhammer exhaust. It's got a nice throaty sound to it.

Funny thing is, I have a Loudmouth catback I bought cheap without a resonator, and I'm contemplating putting an LM1 on it, or putting a Powerstick or something in its place.

I like the TDs to be honest but I tend to like a quieter exhaust. I run AR 1 7/8, AR offroad Y, and the magna flow cat back. It's pretty quiet as far as exhausts go at idle but opens up under load. I guess it's all personal taste but cool that the OP tried something different.

How loud are the chambered mufflers compared to the LM1's? I love the sound of your car but, like you, I want something loud and obnoxious.

Chambered mufflers, like the mad hammers, are pretty loud. Especially if you've only got one muffler like with the Y pipe setup most camaros have.

I really like the exhaust you did OP, it is exactly what I wanted to do except with an x pipe instead of the H. I ended up doing the Hooker blackheart setup with my CME on the end.


Quick Reply: **UPDATE**I might be the only one to have done this... True dual setup with Madhammer
