Default Pics and video of my homemade exhaust for the SLP LM
With LTs and OFY and a cam the Loudmouth was a bit much. I ended up buying a couple of the cheap Summit glasspack mufflers and put them in the tail pipes. I'm really impressed how it took out the raspy sound. It now just has a nice growel with a deep tone. I also have the magnaflow bullet in place of the original SLP can. It didn't really do anything to help with the rasp. I'm making a video of it right now.

Why glass-packs? I would have gone with some spiral flows. Get a picture from the back.

because they were cheap so I thought I would give it a try. If i don't like it all I have to do is take them off. No big deal. Only 40 bucks. I can always put them on my truck.

thanks man, I am happy with the way it sounds. I didn't think 40 bucks for both mufflers was a bad deal at all.

That sounds damn good. I'm tired of all the rasp of the LM. This may be the answer.

Thanks guys. I have tried many differant setups but just wasn't happy. So far I really like the sound of this. Not really much rasp but yet has a mean deep sound at wide open.
