Cool LM1 True Duals (vid)

I know alot of yall do not like the LM1 resonators or catback, but I bit the bullet and installed some on my true duals, which has a h-pipe. I really like the sound. It is quite loud and has rasp, but I don't mind it.

This is a short clip.
I only got around 2800 rpm.

I should go ahead and put my flame proof suit on. haha

I don't think it sounds all that bad really. Is it dumped or out the back?

Thanks Blackhawk777.

It is out the back. 2.5inch pipe. It runs under the axel also.

I thought it was going to be a lot raspier than it is, but Imust say I really do like the way it sounds. There is not hardly any interior drone either.

That does sound good, now get a WOT video.

Ive often thought of installing 2 LM2 mufflers at the end of the exhaust right before the tips but in a CME setup. Doubt ill do it though lol really want a GMMG exhaust.

It is a custom setup.




These are the best pics I have. I will get some more as soon as I can.

$200 for everything except the mufflers.

$200 for everything except the mufflers is a killer price, but I'd bet the resonators were $200 thru SLP. Their ****'s expensive. The tips I wanted thru them were $120 each, IIRC.

I thought it has some great clearance too. It has never scraped on anything. It has even been down a few dirt roads too.

I thought that was a killer price too considering it ran all the way out the back. It has crush bends though, thats the only draw back, but hey it gets the job done haha.

I belive the mufflers were around $150. Dang $120 each?? They must be proud of there exhaust tips, and there mufflers considering the muffler is almost like a straight pipe. haha

can't say I'm much of a fan, little too much of that straight pipe farm truck sound under throttle

bet it sounds great at idle though

can't imagine those "resonators" being that high, kinda rediculous
