Best Mod!
I bought and installed my GMMG about 3 months ago, and I still never get tired of the tone it makes. The cold startup alone is pure badass, and I still have stock manifolds and cats. It's the best money I have ever spent so far, and I am very happy with the quality and customer service as well. The premium oval tips look great in the rear cutouts in the bumper of my WS6 as well. The only thing that is killing me, is the WS6 is covered in the garage for the winter, so its hard not to get to hear it!

I know sound clips don't do justice and maybe my ears are playing tricks on me. But Lawmanss's vid with the SLP lt's cats and GMMG sounded alot like a Loudmouth. I'm interested in getting a GMMG..but it sounds like it will sound pretty much the same as my setup now. No offense to anyone seems like a overpriced loudmouth with a slighty different tone. What I would do to hear one in person. Please more input from people running LT's and ORY with the GMMG!

Charlie: Heheh....if you give me till April, I will have the 231, LT's, ORY, GMMG installed on my 6 speed car. I plan to have my idle about 850 or so. How are things in the island??
I don't think the GMMG sounds anywhere near the LM. Yes...I have heard it is very raspy with LT's and ORY. But that won't stop me from running it on my car. IMO, the GMMG sounds much better than the LM. All around.

Can I use my stock exhaust tips with this system? 700 plus another 150 for oval tips is kinda pricy for exhaust when I can just add a cutout.
How raspy is this compared to a stock ss exhaust with pacesetter LT's and ORP?

The oval tips are just optional. The system actually ships with a set of plain round tips, I'm selling my tips in the Parts for Sale.
But yes, you can use your own, I used a set of custom Z28 tips made in stainless steel. But that's just me

For those who'd like an "honest" comparison between the GMMG and SLP LM, I'd be happy to give one since I've had both on the same car:
Behind stock manifolds and cats, the GMMG is a little quieter but also a little deeper (and more refined ; especially at WOT).
With FLP longtube headers and their highflow cats, WOW...The GMMG is very noticeably deeper at any rpm and a lot more refined (the WOT sound is pure MUSCLE). Whereas with headers (and especially no cats), the LM is not very deep, way too raspy/poppy, and has no rumble to it.
Also, the GMMG never droned any on my car (or the ones I've heard) whereas the LM had a very noticeable and annoying drone that practically gave me a headache...

I have a tr224 (on a 114lsa) and had very little to no lope at idle with the option slp cme. Now since I have mated the cme and gmmg, WOW, the thing lopes and sounds so sweet. I can't go any where without someone asking what I have done to the car. Just think what a 112 or lower would sound.
I love this exhaust. Especially with my cme tips.

S'Wat about us "stock" folks"?
I'm not doing any heads or cam or headers or anything of the sort.
Most of these clips seem to be of people who have done extensive engine mods before the GMMG...

I have a 2000ss with gmmg and stock manifolds cats and everything. the only thing ive done to it is gmmg and lid. And i love the sound it is so awesome i have never heard any other system on an f-body that comes close to it. The sound is very deep and has an awesome tone to it. It sounds so awesome on cold starts, it just roars. good luck on whatever you choose to do

As for the dual/dual thing, I had to hack mine in two places to get it off. Mine was installed by SLP as a new option and they used standard u-bolt clamps that crimped the pipe. I fought it for quite a while because I didn't want to cut it. I did my install on jack stands. Be fore-warned: If you don't have access to a lift and you're going to use jack stands, you need to get the *** end up fairly high to fish the rear section of the GMMG over the axle
