it all depends on what muffler you go with. i have a loudmouth 1 on my car but went to a spiral flow muffler. although not as much, it is still definately loud. just got rid of some of the interior resonance that was killing me on the highway.

header type (ML or LT) and cats and all that will make a smaller difference as well.

The loudmouth will probably be louder. I have been in a car with headers, ORY, and Loudmouth and it was loud, but sounded good.

LMII is very quiet compared to LMI and dumped TD's

I say not only is dumped TD's just as loud if not louder, it sounds so much cleaner in MOST cases...loud isnt always good if it sounds like ***

LM1 + ORY = louder than TDs, IMO.

TDs sounds far and away better though. Also, IMO.

yea i had a LM1+ headers and had to get a borla xr1 to quiet it.
I heard some clips and i like the way the single chamber flows sound.
Also heard the sweet thunders sound good.
I dont want my car to be super loud like the lm1 i had. Loud is nice,but the attention from cops is weak.

Friend has an MS3, longtubes, LM1.

He is MUCH louder than my 402ci with over the axle true duals, Kooks 1 7/8" LT's, no cats, Magnaflow mufflers.


I think mine sounds quite a bit better though.

loudmouth anything is loud....true duals sounds much nicer but weigh twice as much(twice the amount of pipes), have to go over the axle on both sides in a cramp space to look clean, and also depending on the mufflers you choose for duals, they will be just as loud but sound real deep and throaty.
