Default Which One Is Louder?

Which exhaust would be louder?

BORLA STRAIGHT PIPES?

SLP LOUDMOUTH?

I have the Tis on with the rest of my system, but the tips are not lining up all that well, one side is just touching the bumper and causing things to be aggreviating, besides that they are pretty close. So, I am thinking of going back to the STRIAGHT PIPES, but would consider the LMs.

Thanks,

Micah

I was thinking the same thing, but I am getting reports that the LMs are the louder of the the two. I had straight pipes and they were great, but I thought I should get a muffler and now I hate my Tis.

They are both equally as loud, but i think the borlas sound less like a boat.
