Default Help identify exhaust system please

I bought this car used and didn't really get a whole lot of information with it. I'm trying to figure out this exhaust system now. I know it's an SLP system but I don't know which one. I've been comparing it to the PowerFlo system when I came to these ideas.


This is right before the tips, I believe this is a Powerflo muffler and there's also one on the left side of the exhaust.


I believe that's the Loud Mouth muffler. Also everything from there forward appears to be stock because it's so rusted.

If I'm way off base here please tell me, I'm just trying to figure out exactly what I have. Also, where should I be looking to find the cat converter?

Looks like the SLP power flow system, just pull it up on their site.

OK, so that's one of the converters at the top of the pipe then right?

Thanks RS, after looking some more at the site I'm pretty sure that's the system I have.

Yes that is one of the cats, looks like it just has that catback on it, no longtubes or ORY.

Let me ask you one question, Does it have 2 Mufflers after the axle? Correct me if I'm wrong anyone but it looks like a Loudmouth 1 or 2 that's the muffler in the I-pipe and 2 possible power-flo mufflers at the rear. It may be a retro fit loudmouth one and someone put those 2 power-flo's at the end to quite it down or try and take out the drone and rasp.

Yeaa, its just a Powerflo Catback system that is on your car man. I believe its a Loudmouth 2 Muffler that comes with this catback, but im not to sure. I think SLP's site will say which Loudmouth comes in the I-Pipe.

Yea it has mufflers on both sides after the axle, and I believe it's a LM 2 before them. I'm pretty happy with the setup I was just curious as to what it was and I think I have a pretty good idea now. Now I'm just wondering how it would sound without those PowerFlo mufflers on there lol.

tag0398 do you think you can get a sound clip of it or do you have one? An I don't know about the LM2 Sound but if it is a LM1 then it may be raspy but without cats it gets annoying to some.

Sorry, unfortunately I don't have a clip and as of right now I don't have a camcorder to get one with. It sounds good, just not quite loud enough for me. It has a nice rumble, I just want a little more. Although I was very impressed going WOT from about 55 mph. If I ever get the chance to record it though I definitely will.

look like the LM1 resonator that runs off the stock ypipe and then into a powerflow catback with the two mufflers like someone added.

Save up and get longtubes, then you should love the sound. Here's a video clip of my old Z28 w/ the LM2 muffler on with a Custom 3" y pipe with Magnaflow Spun Cats

http://vids.myspace.com/index.cfm?fu...deoid=39895738

Then of course, here's the Loudmouth 2 Muffler with BBK longtubes & ORY I love the sound but with the Powerflo setup. It would be a throatier more muscle car sound, those 2 extra mufflers help eliminate the rasp.

That will be my first mod. Headers and longtubes, just gotta get some money and find a place to do it. That second clip is pretty much the sound I want. Thanks for posting the videos.

RS_SS69, that's the system that I was thinking I have. I just wasn't sure because weld marks are clearly visible on mine and I can't tell by that picture if they're that visible on the system in that link.
