Thanks heartless T/A99 , well other than the one bolt that was corroded that connect`s the factory y pipe to the cat back , yeah it was`nt bad . We had to use the torches to loosen it up a bit but it came right off . Everything fits pretty good , Oh and the use of a hoist it makes it soo much easier .

I like it , it`s much deeper/louder that my old catback wich was the stock firehawk piping with a magnaflow muffler & tips .
There is allot less rasp & it dosen`t scream when you nail the throttle but you can feel this exhaust in the cabin it`s much more mello .
I was driving on the highway the other day with the windows up & its not droning & you can live with it .

I'm sure it would be a little louder, but you might also get more rasp as well.

The I-pipe muffler / resonator is just a 3" flow through design, so it shouldn't hurt performance at all.

I would experiment with that if you do get this system. Get an exhaust shop to cut an exact size piece of the LM muffler in the I-Pipe and get yourself 2 clamps. Clamp that piece in there and see how it sounds compared to the LM muffler being in there. Get vids of course lol

Which LM resonator do you have in there? LM1 or LM2? I'm considering going this route with my LM1 setup. Since I have a cat'd Y, it's not horrible but it certainly draws attention at WOT from a distance

Cool thanks. I just ordered the Powerflo retro-fit kit for my LM1 setup. I'm looking forward to installing it.

The PowerFlo setup worked wonders on my LM1 + cat'd LT setup. It sounds refined and "tuned" now. The retofit installation was straight forward and the pieces fit great.

Here is my old set up: Pacesetter LT's, ORY, and TSP rumbler 3" exhaust.

Here is my new set up: OBX-R headers and catted Y-pipe, SLP Powerflo Cat back
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=po20Wmj-YM4

I miss the idle tone of the old set up but with a stalled auto it sounded like **** with all the rasp driving it around and anything about 2k rpm and on the highway it is much nicer now than before.
