Default True duals to slp lm1

Alright ive been reading nothing but slp lm1 is very loud. My question is how could it be any louder than the true dual setup i have now dumped at the axle. Ive listen to clips of this type of exhaust non stop just to hear it being to loud to use, and it sounds so much quiter than what i have now. Iono jw first time buying exhaust but thxs for listening haha

it will be raspier because of the y pipe. i wouldnt go back to a y pipe/caback setup if i were you. id spend the money getting the TDs taken all the way back.

it shouldn't be louder. your dumps are so loud because the sound is bouncing off the ground

what about LM2 ?? it has a bullet muffler instead of a resonator, which will quiet the exhaust a bit.

what about a tsp rumbler ? smae concept with the bullet muffler but less expensive

**** man, I'm gonna do the opposite, going from LM1 to true duals, can't use the TSP one though cause I have a tunnel mount TA. LM1 is nothing compared to duals, heard the comparison and I ain't impressed with my LM1.

lm1 is quiter to you because most people use it on the stock exhaust manifolds and Y I think

try to see if the problem (only 1" off the ground) is because of the car is lowered or it it can be tucked higher by an exhaust shop or another system that`d fit higher

my car is lowered and it was tucked as much as possible from the previous owner of the car. Me and him talk often. But loved the slp lm on my white t/a granted all i had was a lid but oh well it will be all good.
