Finally got around to the LM1 to LM2 swap
It's soooo much quieter. Way better so far inside the car, you don't have to shout to talk or fight the drone.
But it doesn't sound as aggressive up top. Still good though I think. Before all you heard was exhaust and rasp now you hear way more from up front. I'd say it cut it down around 20 db's.
I'll post up the before and after vid's later tonight or tomorrow

Ok so thanks to Jeremy (98goldz) for helping me.
Here's how it was before the swap(it does sound nasty up top but was just too loud inside the car, and didn't sound very good around 2k-2,500rpm):

Here's a cold start on the LM1:

Here's the flyby(got kinda messed up because my buddy was supposed to be further up the road and I let off the gas too early, but you can still hear it):

Here's a LM2 cold start(you can tell its way quieter):

Yeah for sure, when the weather turns we should all get out for a cruise! And I'm putting LED's in the brake lights as turn signals too whenever they show up (red bulbs for brakes)

Yup got them on eBay, just 3057/3157 bulbs, those are 32 LEDs in the backup lights. Turn signal and brake light are also the same bulb and the the small brake light bulb is a 194 I believe

Here ya go. Same ones I bought, they are actually 48 LED's. 2 for $15, not bad. Way cheaper than superbright LED's. If you are doing the brake lights though I've seen pics with red and white bulbs and the red ones look much better IMO.
