The dynomax bullet 4" body muffler helps, but still loud as ****... not sure of other's, I thought about doing 2 bullets after the over axle, but not sure if that's feasable to do without it being real ugly if you don't have a rear cme valance like mine has.

I got a pretty healthy cam, long tubes, and an ORY. Ran an open Borla for years (very loud). This is not a daily driver, just a toy. I hated starting it early in the morning so ended up never driving it to work. I recently just closed up the Borla and this is pretty quiet set up. I added a DMH electric cutout and love it. Quiet now till I leave the neighbor hood and yet even louder then the open Borla when it's open. So in short I recomend the E cutout.

I would go with the slp powerflo conversion for you. Replace the center muffler with the lm2, and it adds bullet mufflers before each tip. It's the deepest, no raspy exhaust setup I've ever had, and I've had a total of 3 different headers (macs, edelbrocks, QTPs), 4 different catbacks (slp LM1, WS6, magnaflow, and the Powerflo) and it's the best by far.
It's a little bit louder than the previous magnaflow, but it's a good loud. Very very deep. Like comparing the factory monsoon subs to a true JL W7 sub.

Yea i would go with powerflos, they are easy to put on and yank off if you want it to be loud for just one weekend or something. Plus they have a very good tone to them.

Another vote for SLP powerflow. It should be easy to convert since you have the LM1. If you choose this route make sure to buy the conversion and not the entire catback.

i vote for the magnaflow or like i have, the MAGNAMOUTH. i just finished installing the mac mids, ory, and magnaflow 5" round muffler (replaces resonator) slp loudmouth catback. the car sounds sick. its very deep at startup, idle and cruising. When accelerating lightly to moderately and its between 2000 and 2500 rpm it sounds a lot like a mustang 5.0 with an H-pipe and flowmasters but then after that it goes back to being very deep and smooth. Its wierd its almost like a dual personality exhaust but it sounds awesome.
