I dont see how people like the sound of the LM1. I think it sounds like crap IMO. Are you sure you like the sound or you just like the loudness of it? Just get a custom TD setup installed with some Dynomax bullets. TSP has a pretty nice TD kit with isnt too expensive. If you like your car loud, TD's sound a lot better than the LM1 IMO. Either exhaust will be obnoxiously loud after you install a cam.

The only time i have ever really liked the sound of the loudmouth is when the car has stock manifolds and y pipe. Go with TD like they said and get either bullets or sweet thunders. IMO i personally love the sound of sweet thunders.

If you want to hear sound clips go to ls1sounds.com
