yeah the lm2's actually have some sound absorbing material inside them where as the lm1's don't. so it will sound deeper and less raspy, also that harsh machine gun pop that lm1's are notorious for will be greatly reduced. but should still be plenty loud.

many people use a borla xr1 usually being called a ''borlamouth'' or alot of people ditch the slp resonator and go for a bullet style muffler like a dynomax or even a cheap summit racing bullet. yes the loudmouth can be raspy but ANYTHING with lt's,ory, and a cam is going to be loud and obnoxious. im biased to either one, i love loud raspy or a little more tone sound i could careless.

excually i like the sound the car currently makes, but its just so loud that i have a huge problem using it anywhere, and i want to be able of taking my baby w/o scaring the **** out of it

and yeah, the sound isn't realy nice at cruizing speed, rasp and drone,

is the LM2's loudness comparable to most of the catbacks?

thanks
