Default Tsp Rumbler vs Slp LM

What are the pros and cons of these two exhaust systems against one another?? Performance, sound, droning and anything else you can think of.....thanks in advance!

TSP is cheaper and they use a bullitt muffler, slp uses a resonator and is more expenseive. Other than that they are the same design

So SLP is going to be louder correct?? If so is the TSP still louder than most catback exhaust systems?

Thanks,
Scott

SLP is a little louder, but not much. TSP will sound a little more refined than the LM. Both will be louder than the average cat-back as they both are straight through all the way. If you have, or will ever have headers with an off road y I would suggest staying away from these systems. Both will be raspy,SLP more so than TSP. Check out the exhaust sticky at the top in this forum, all your questions will be answered.

also... LM is Stainless steel.. TSP is aluminized. I have the TSP Rumbler and like it. at idle and cruising around its not all that loud but it does have a resonance around 1800rpm. When you get on it it gets LOUD! I heard another LS1 with LM stock manifolds and y-pipe and didn't like it. TSP is more mellow. Eventually I'm getting headers with Cats so we'll see how loud it gets. If its gets too loud I'll have the rumbler modded to use a 2nd bullet muffler using 3" pipe and a single outlet. I don't care about having dual tips or tips at all. Heck I bought my Rumbler without tips as it is.

ohh yeah my car has stock manifolds, cats, and y pipe.

I have a friend with LTs and the loudmouth and its loud. I can here his car over mine and my stereo. Both will be loud and if you have LTs or will get LTs then you could always swap the muffler out with a Borla and it will take care of the rasp that you get. Plus I hear the borla sounds great.

Whats the best price you guys have seen for either of these systems?? I found a LM for $329.99 that includes tax and shipping and Tsp on there site was around the $331 tax and shipping included.
