Default Modified loudmouth.

Im going to be purchasing a loudmouth catback for my car in the next few weeks from a friend, and am wondering if I will be able to fit my 2 moroso spiral flow mufflers in just before the tips, or if I should just replace the loudmouth resonator with 1 of the moroso mufflers. Thanks.

I would just replace the resonator. I dont know if the spiral flow muffler will fit right there but many including myself have replaced it with a bullet muffler. Pretty mellow down low but sounds really good at wot and no rasp at all.

The resonator is 3 inch in/out, the tail pipes are 2.5 in/out. I don't know how long the spiral mufflers are, but you only have about 13 inches to work with on the drivers side of the LM.

I just put in a Moroso Spiral flow in place of my resonator the other day. It fits fine, just like the resonator did, and the sound is really good. It sounds exactly the same as the LM, but with alot less rasp, no drone at highway speeds, and just a slight bit quieter. Hope this helps

I got rid of my LM and welded the sprial flow at the end of my y-pipe with a turn down, and it sounds amazing. The great thing is that their is a gain in performance too.(I COULD NOTICE A DIFFERENCE!)
