I am considering the SLP or BMR. Any major advantages/disadvantages between the two or are they pretty much the same?

Thanks

 

I have the SLP. No complaints here. It was a snao to install too.

You can look it up on Jegs, P/N is 18022.

 

Anyone know if that Jegs DS loop will work with a car that has SLP LTs?

 

The BMR won't fit. Been there and done that. I have the Lakewood and I love it. It fits perfectly with my BMR TA and FLPs.

I'm using a Metco, but with SLP Dual-Dual & stock Y-pipe. Nice piece, but don't know how it works w/other Y-pipes, or headers....Anyone using Metco w/aftermarket Y's or headers? WJ. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="gr_images/icons/wink.gif" />

 

I also got the Red Metco, took a whopping 10 minutes to put in, and didn't have to take anything off, bolted right up to existing holes!

 

Do these use existing mounting locations, or does it require that holes be drilled? I would like to get one myself......$50 bucks for the Lakewood sounds good.

 

I have the Lakewood #18022, and it was designed very well. I'm still going to have to grind some on it because it's just BARELY touching my y-collector. I'm running the FLP headers and ORP with a Flowmaster y-collector, and it's just wide enough to vibrate on the DS loop. It's nothing that a little bit of grinding won't take care of.

I recommend the Lakewood DSL (be sure to specify #18022). It will clear the majority of exhaust setups, it uses the stock cross-member holes, and it's cheaper than the BMR, etc. FYI, I tried a BMR DSL a year ago at the NFRA event, and it was nowhere near close to clearing my FLP y-pipe. I felt violated after giving $100 for it.
