Default Loudmouth II Question

I am eyeing a LM II bullet muffler in the sale section. I have looked at pics of the se things and they seem to just be a one in one out muffler. How would this be set up to weld in place on a stock catback...?

Could you do this?

Install the Loudmouth II in the I-pipe then get a muffler shop to cut out your stock muffler and weld in a piece of straight pipe where the muffler used to go and a Tee to split off to the right side tail pipe. Or just run the one tailpipe.

LM II = $100.
Welding..../pipe ...< $100.

You get the LMII sound/power for $200 not $400.

Note: The LMII is 3" diameter. Measure the stock I pipe to see if it is 3" as well.

Just spend 375 for the LMII setup. It's stainless and sounds good.

Or, buy a LMII or LMI muffler and put it in the i-pipe. Then weld in a cutout after the muffler at the bend over the axle, before it goes over the axle.

You'll have the sound and similar HP to the LM but will always be able to cap it in case it gets annoying.
