My SLP LM1 Catback opinion...

Well I swapped my 01 ws6 catback w/ a dynomax superturbo muffler for a used LM1 catback and even though i didnt think i was going to gain anything I felt an instant sotp gain. It sounds awesome, even w/ my headers...maybe because im catted
. Only time i heard any type of rasp was when I went wot once. Honestly im not sure why people say these catbacks are only bareable if your running stock manifolds....

It's probably becuz you're running mid-lengths and have cats. The cats will cut out a lot of the rasp. Throw some longtubes on there and get rid of the cats...then tell us your opinion! Haha!

I've always liked it too. I have Stock Headers, an ORY, & LM1. It's not loud enough for me. I'm swapping this setup out for LTs an ORY with Dual cutouts... keeping the LM for now.

I have Kooks LT's, Kooks catted y, and the LM1 catback. I LOVE the sound it has. And so does alot of other people going off the compliments I get. Without cats it would be insane though and not sound very good. Its already loud as hell and a bit raspy at WOT. Im very pleased with my setup also.

I think the reason many people stay away from them is because of in cabin noise. I know when I was running stock headers and y that my LM1 droned quite a bit alittle under 2k rpms. So I can see where that might drive people crazy when cruising. Doesn't bother me a bit and I'm running LM1 resonators as mufflers on my true dual set up. You think the LM1 is loud, try a true dual set up and you will make people **** their pants.

I've loved mine since '02! It's received many harsh looks from people who don't like how loud it is lol; however, I've been followed by many people who wanted to know what kind of system it was because they loved how it sounded. To each their own I suppose.

I love the way my car sounds with Loudmouth. Once I get the tranny back in the GF's Mustang then I can work on getting my Jet Hot LT's and Catted Y on the car. I'll be sure to post another youtube video once its complete. Here is the car with only SLP's catback and stock manifolds.
