Default Switching exhaust (SLP-GMMG)

first off...i now have SLP Loudmouth....i love it...however i kno sooner or later i will want to add headers and either an ORY or Gut the cats...so i kno GMMG will be better for that...and i love the sound of GMMG also

is this a good idea even for the time being with the stock manifolds and SLP y-pipe and stock cats....or would it be better to get the GMMG as soon as possible?

since i never installed exhaust b4...does it just all slide into place....or is there welding involved anywhere?


thanks for the help

the gmmg is gonna be pretty loud with an offroad y. I think the GMMG sounds best with lt's and cats IMO.

it should bolt up fine, but you could weld it if you wish

I think the pipes should match up. Someone tell me if I am wrong?

You be the judge. Listen to my setup.

GMMG, Pacesetters, No cats

Sounds like a plan. I would love to have a set of kooks over my pacesetters. The cats will probablly get ride of some of that "glassy" sound you like and it might quite it down a bit too. It's not really a big deal though cause I heard the gmmg with headers and cats and it still sounds bad ***.

By the way, that video does no justice at all

I have Kook's, ORY, and a GMMG and it sounds badass. I get complimets everywhere I go and only gained 1 hp with a cutout. But be advised that it is LOUD.
