I also liked the 2OTL. It's too bad SLP quit making it. I found a new one on EBay before I settled on the GMMG. It was gone the last time I checked. I'm not sure how I would have liked the appearance, but the clips I heard sounded very good.

I've never seen it done but I wonder what it would sound like if you had two SLP LM1 resonators dumped before the axel .... True Dual style with SLP LM1 resonators, I bet it would be loud as hell and I wonder how it would sound?

If you just have extra cash laying around, then you can gain a few hp with a cutout open. Gains all depend on the catback.

Don't bother with cutouts IMO, they really don't free up much power at all, unless you are breathing through a stock catback or something otherwise. Or if you just want to be as loud as possible sometimes.

GMMG for a catback. None except the LM get close on the flow/hp. I ran a GMMG and got more compliments on it than everything else on my car combined. I sold it a while back for 3" duals... I wanted something louder and that wouldnt hold me back at all.

that would be about the only reason i would want it, so i could be as loud as possible sometimes. if i do decide to get them should i get just one and put it before the y pipe goes into the catback or go ahead and get dual cutouts?

I have Corsa and IMO its way better than any other setup I have heard. Flowmaster sucks, LM1 was ok when I only had a cat-back, otherwise it sounds terrible. Borla sounds pretty good, its distinct. I have never heard gmmg in person.
Here is a vid of my Corsa (not the greatest to judge exhaust by though)

I'd put it right before the I-pipe goes over the axle. Whatever you do, don't put it right at the merge of the Y-pipe. It's louder than hell, but sounds like complete ****, unless you have it above 3k.
