I have Flowtech LT's,ORY, and loudmouth, as I found out, not a good combo. Sounds reallyyyy raspy. Is there a muffler that I can replace the loudmouth with that will sound awesome??
Thanks
Dan

Hooker single in/dual out sounds good, but a hooker single in/single out sounds freakin' mean... You can also add a flowmaster y-collector to your y-pipe to help out with the rasp as well.

Depends what you mean by awesome as every one has different tastes.

Basically any muffler that flows sufficently and is the same/similar size as the LM resonator should fit in place of it. Or you could use multiple mufflers for a more toned sound, or a combo of the LM resonator and a muffler.

Borla & Dynomax seem the popular choices however I like the idea of Magnaflow. None of these straight thru mufflers will make it any quieter but they will alter the sound. If you want quieter you'lll need a larger bodies muffler or multiple mufflers.

Was in a similar dilemma and the DynoMax bullet install didn't help a bit. I've since welded in a Borla XR1 and the difference is amazing. Get the Borla!
