Do the exhaust first and see how it goes.. Drive it for about 6 months with that **** loud exhaust. You'll get tired of it after a while. Loud Mouths aren't the BEST, but they are the loudest. BEST would Be Corsa or GMMG as far as HIGH end exhaust. No real reason to have cut outs with a LM1.


Pacesetter LT's, TSP ORY, and LM1. = loud and raspy.

Cam? It all depends what you want the car to do (besides haul ***.) AutoX? Street Car? Drag Car? DD?

i ran longtubes + ory + LM1 and i honestly loved it. It was damn loud. Was pretty raspy, and drone, but at WOT it owned all..

It was pretty loud, so my next setup was 230 cam, longtubes, ory, and magnaflow and it was quiet. I honestly wasnt happy with it.

I just replaced my ory and magnaflow for a 3" TSP duals with dynomax bullets dumped and all i can say is DAMN!! I love the sound of it. It is pretty loud, but very tolerable. Maybe just as loud as LM1 but very more clean sounding. I love it and glad i dumped magnaflow. You can definitely hear my cam lope compared to magnaflow.

run open headers with 18" extensions if all you want is loud. it WILL get old fast especially for a DD car.

I have a custom setup with LM1. Love it and NEVER get tired if the sound. True dual all the way back with an X pipe 2 LM1 then under the axle and out. Am now getting Pacesetter ceramics LT's and Mganaflow Hi-Flow Heavy Metal cats installed soon. Was told it will make it raspy and drone ( not sure what drone means ) but all I want is for this thing to be heard before its seen. And with LM1's you will get the sound no doubt!

Want loud ,ms4 cam,tsp ory,slp lm1. Have fun lol,I liked the loudmouth for awhile but I'm looking for more of a deep good sound instead of just noise,you could always do true duals with 2 slp lm1 resonators,why do you want such a loud car?

The only thing I will miss about the lm1 setup is that you could scare everyone just by punching it,no need for a cut out you can't get much louder than that
