Sell the both of them and try to find a SLP 2OTL. The exhaust note is superior to any other. JMO of course.

i love my loudmouth at wide open throttle with longtubes and ory. While at cruise though it does tend to get a little drony, especially going down the highway in 6th gear at 1500-2000 rpms hearing the sound bounce off the median. Luckily i only drive this car maybe once or twice a wekk, although ill probably end up putting some mufflers on the back tail pipe area and maybe cats and doing cut outs

I've had both and would buy the magnaflow again. The loudmouth is just noise, not that its just too loud just has a terrible sound at a very high volume.

The worst exhaust setup I've owned and I've had quite a few. The loudmouth is great with stock manifolds and cam, with headers and an aftermarket cam it's just way too obnoxious. You'll get tired of being the unwanted center of attention everywhere you go, having your neighbors hate you if you arrive late or wake up early, not being able to carry on a decent conversation or accept a phone call in the car, etc. I understand its not your everyday vehicle but I still wouldn't go with it.

To me the GMMG is the same, except twice the money with a little better tone.
