Possible power loss with this exhaust change? I have a 2002 SS thats stock except for the SLP lid, LoudMouth, TransGo kit, and torque management deleted 100%.
It ran consistant 13.6 bone stock.
All the above mods were done at the same time and now it runs 13.2 consistant.
I just ordered an SLP Dual/Dual kit from Speed Inc.
Will this slow me down any? I know the loudmouth is almost like having no exhaust and the dual/dual has to have a little more restriction.
And what about cruise noise inside, I cannot cruise at 40+ and hear a cell phone. Will it be quieter inside?
Is Speed Inc a good company?
Sorry to ask so much, I spent hours last night reading here and listening to ls1sounds.com. I just had some specific questions for my application.

the dual dual will be way way way quieter, speed inc is one of the top company for fbod ls1
I really wouldnt worry about a possible power loss with the new catback, but if you re after those 4 or 5 horses , you might want to just put a cut out in the i pipe, everybody sells them , get the 3 inch, usually 30$
it seems like a good time to do it to since you are ready to put another cat back
I had a louder cat back like you before and for many reasons had to go back to a more civilized route, I just uncap my cut out when I feel the need for it
anyway thats my .02

The Dual/Dual is a great exhaust. ALOT quieter than the Loudmouth. I had the dual/dual and now have the Loudmouth. As for flow, I dont think the dual/dual will slow you down much. The dual/dual is pretty quiet around town but it has a great tone at WOT.
As for you hearing your cell phone with the dual/dual, shoot you'll hear a pin drop inside..

I'm starting to not feel so bad about spending the money on the dual/dual. Thanks.
