Here are some Power-mouth pics and clips
I finally got the 16" Powerstick on! Sounds great at idle. There is still some rasp at part throttle but its got a deeper tone. The only fitment issue was mating it to the y-pipe. I'm not sure how he did it and its not the prettiest but my guy did a really good job otherwise. I have some sound clips I'll get up as soon as I figure out how.

Looking forward to sound clips.
Out of curiosty, when you say rasp do you only mean when you sit and rev the motor?
I have a SLP LM and so far have never heard any rasp. When going along at part throttle or at WOT it just sounds DEEP and mean, very old school. I would assume the Powerstick would also.
IMO if you want a more "toned" sound still, get 2 short Powersticks and put them just before the exhaust tips. This will give you a pretty much identical setup to the Stainlees Works Chambered exhaust.

The rasp is mainly at part throttle. I don't think there is set up out there that doesn't have that raspy sound when running LTs and no cats. It sounds a bit deeper than the resonator, especially when cruising. And if I change it I'll most likely go TDs and run two 'sticks. I'll get some clips up soon. The Powerstick is a nice quality muffler and the price was right.

I wanted a deeper tone/rumble at part throttle. It sounds about the same idling or wide open. Around town it has a more mellow sound. It's still raspy but not as obnoxious. A longer 'stick would probably tone it down a bit more, but it would have required more fabrication than I saw a need for.

I want to revive this thread to see if anyone has any soundclips on a 20 inch stick for a powermouth setup on a ls1? As for '00_Z did you ever get those other soundclips? Anyone with a powermouth unsatisfied and why?
