lm2 or lm1 exhaust i have a 99' trans am and im looking to get an exhaust and i have narrowed it down to 2 the slp loudmouth 1 or 2. i dont know how they sound so i need some advice on which to get.
Most people now get the LMII. It is still a pretty loud exhaust...but it sounds good with headers and flows good. The LMI is a steel can with no real quieting properties to it. The LMII muffler used in the LMII kit a straight through bullet muffler. SLP developed the LMII because the LMI was so loud it was illegal in some areas and too loud for some tracks.
We have an awesome deal on all the SLP LM's here-

If you plan on headers and ORY pipe later on down the road, you may want to hear a LM first to see if you'll like it. I had LM1 for about a year and then got PS LT's and ORY and it is LOUD. As in rattle the house on cold starts loud. Just something to think about. Cheaper to buy a different system now as opposed to replacing the LM later. I've never heard the setup on a LM2, so can't comment on that one with LTs.

LM1, longtubes and ory here as well. Its not so much that its too loud, its the quality of the sound that sucks. It great at idle or wide open, everything in between is obnoxious. I have heard that running a catted y makes a big difference though. Besides these drawbacks the LM is an awesome exhaust. Its stainless, lighter than the factory set up and looks great.
i have the lm1s with lts and custom 3inch duals and love it, it is very loud. probably the loudest fbody around this area. i have personally herd the lm2 on another fbody with headers, and in my opnion it sounds like hammerd dog ***. if u like the sound water gurguling frm a boat then it ok i guess.
