Loudmouth Questions I'm probably going to be buying this sytem soon and was wondering if it bolts in or does it require welding? Also, does it look relatively shiny being that it's stainless steel or is the finish dull?
Re: Loudmouth Questions it bolts in fine. I installed mine in 20 mins (on a lift cutting the stocker off)
the piping isnt very shiny, but it is stainless steel. The tips look great.
Are you getting slash, or the dual tips?

Re: Loudmouth Questions I don't have access to a lift (unless I take it to a muffler shop or something) so I'll have to use jack stands. I plan to get the dual/dual tips. Do you mean you had to cut off the stock exhaust with a welder or did you just cut it off with a hacksaw? I wish I didn't have to cut off the stock exhaust since I plan on saving it.
Re: Loudmouth Questions you dont have to cut off the stock , but you might have to have access to a lift if you would like to keep it intact.You are going to have to drop the rear suspension if you wish to keep the stock all together..(which really isnt a big deal but i didnt want to take the time since SLP LM is a 50 state legal factory exhaust anyway.)
The stock piping is actually pretty thick. I used a $100 electric saw and it came off easy. I dont think a hacksaw will cut it.
oh BTW : see if you can remember what you face looks like when you start it up! I think i drove 150 miles when i first got mine
post some pics after the install!

Re: Loudmouth Questions Thanks for the info Juice. I'll post pics when I do it. It might be a month or two before it happens though since my fiance and I are saving for a wedding and house. I just like to research every mod thoroughly ahead of time.
Re: Loudmouth Questions Like juice said, its 50 state legal, so i had an exhaust shop weld it on just to escape the possibility of any rattling. Loudmouth also sounds awesome.
