Default Slp CME question

Going with headers and Ory, the slp cme factory cat back looks large enough, is there anything to gain by replacing it or even just replacing the muffler? Probably wouldn't be too hard to clamp in a different one.

I would say leave it alone, and see how you like it after the headers go on. It is one of the best for combating rasp, flows well, and people seem to really like it with headers. Won't be outrageously loud, but should sound good.

The dual dual muffler is one of the best flowing mufflers out there, dont replace it thinking your putting a higher flowing one on here.

The problem with the cme is the 90s at the tips and maybe the ota. I put in a cutout and gained 15-20 hp. I like having it and just flip a switch when it's go time.
