A cheaper way to get the "dynomouth" sound is to just get the Loudmouth 2 setup. Same price as original LM. I loved mine. I put headers on and it just sounded completely incredible. Although I just swapped for a magnaflow.. sounds ok...but I miss the LMII. And the whole rasp thing. PFF. mine only had a short burst of rasp right above 2k and that was it. If you want to eliminate rasp with the lm (or any other LT/catback setup) invest in a better header/ypipe combo once you go that route. The flowmaster y-merge collectors are way more efficient thus decreasing your rasp immensely.

Magnaflow rocks!!! Its mirror-polished stainless steel, excellent flow, deep sweet sound, resonable price. Not much else you would want from an exhaust system.

Oh yeah, if you decide on Magnaflow, keep your eyes peeled cuz a few of our sponsors have sales on them all the time....well under $400 shipped

Thats why you put a Borla XR-1 IN PLACE OF THE LM RESONATOR.

The Borla adj cat-back with full exhaust sounds like crap, sooooo much rasp.

Peace,
Craig.

Magnamouth here! Sounds so much better than the LM the muffler in the LM is only an expansion chamber there is nothing inside it.

Cheers! I heard those sound badass as well!

Another thing these guys have no clue about is that the LM weighs like 10lbs, vs like a Borla cat-back weighing around 70-75lbs.

Peace,
Craig.

+1 for the Borlamouth as well. I just had my XR-1 welded in 2 weeks ago and I love the sound! Here is a little clip I made:
