ok cool took a look at it, looks like an exact copy of a lm...wonder how good that muffler is though...where the tips at? Think about that phab carefully, good quality tips will put you into SLP pricing...id get the SLP if those were my only 2 choices..

Hmm thats what I was thinking about I'm just looking for a good balance in sound i want be able to hear it when I'm crusing and idleing you know? like I looked at Magnaflow but its mega quiet almost like the stock muffler, looking for something with a little more bark you know?

ss.slp.ls1 does your 2OTL have that cone of silence thing in it? how does it sound like on a stock set up?

the 2otl is a pretty simple design. It was pretty quite when I had it on my car (came with it)

The loud mouth 2 is a good compromise...its loud but not raspy like the lm1 is

I've run Flowmaster, Magnaflow, GMMG, and TD's. In terms of catbacks the GMMG is by far the best out there IMO. Borla is right on GMMG's tail with Magnaflow 3rd all my opinion of course. I also really like Hooker and SLP 2OTL.

If you have the cash GMMG is the answer you will never hear a better car in your life than an LT1 with Long Tubes and GMMG. On a budget the Magnaflow hands down because it sounds great and is stainless steel. Hooker isn't stainless otherwise I'd throw that in with the Magnaflow.

I think SLP LM1 and LM2 sound like absolute garbage. I've heard them in real life several times and it's embaressing. Maybe with LT's and cats the LM2 would be decent but not worth it. I'm also not a Corsa fan with the LT1's but that's even more money than GMMG I think.

Dumped X-Pipe with Dynomax Bullets. Sounds real sweet, like nascar at WOT lol. To my suprise it sounds pretty clean eventhough its a bullet style muffler similar to a LM muffler. Nothing like TD's!

No, there is no resonator.

Here's a little video (mods at the time: CC503, 1.6 rr's, SS CAI, 52mm TB, PS LT's, Y, 2OTL):

LM between the two...I love mine, but hey, I'm loud and obnoxious. Like my buddy Rob told me when I told him I put a Loudmouth on the car, "So now you got a Loudmouth in the car and you got a Loudmouth on the car?"

Borla does sound pretty nice ive been thinking about it but that price tag is killer though if i can find a local used exhaust in good condition ill check it out.

BTC- I have been looking into GMMG but its really pricey like borla is it possible to find it anywhere cheaper? lol

So then you guys wouldn't recommend the PHAB exhaust then?
that is a TSP rumbler with a LM1 Resonator in place of the dynomax bullet. My shorties deepened the dynomax up too much, now its all better.
