Rumbler-LM comparisson please

I am debating getting either the LM and Rumbler cat-back. The reason I consider the rumbler is because by next spring I will have LT's and I hear LM is quite loud and raspy. I have read that Rumbler is much better with the rasp and drone. is the resonators different? Why is it a difference if the catbacks are so identical?

Is the Rumbler stainless?

Thanks Guys, Jon

TSP Rumbler:
3"
Aluminized steel
18" Dynomax Bullet

Loudmouth
3"
Stainless steel
12" resonator

Sound quality:
The both sound amazing on stock manifolds and cats. Add LTs and ORY to the mix and it's a whole different ballgame. They both become louder and obnoxiously raspy.

The Rumbler cuts down maybe 10% of the Rasp, but it still sounds like *** with LTs and ORY.

If you get either of these exhausts, I would recommend adding a Borla XR-1 once you add your LTs and ORY.

They're really the same exhaust and about the same sound quality.
