Default Loudmouth 1....

So is the LM1 like stupid loud with stock cats/manifolds?

I just saw one for sale cheap, I was thinking of picking it up.

I know, it'll sound like ass with LT's. Well LT's are a long way off. I just want to do some sort of catback to wake up the sound of the car.

The LM1 is dumb loud no matter what. I had it on my Z pre headers and got 4 tickets for noise pollution.

Easy fix: Install Bullet Muffler in place of Resonator

Oh yeah and High flow Cats in a 3" Y-pipe

I've had mine on the car since 2000, and I did the Bullet Muffler after two weeks... Solves the Rasp, quiets the car down to only obnoxiously loud vs ridiculously loud.

And I've gotten ZERO Tickets in 10 years with it. And even just got pulled over in Bloomfield figuring the cop would give me a ticket for it... Nope said it wasn't that loud, but I was going to fast and needed to slow down...

I rode in a car with stock exhaust and a Loudmouth, it drones inside the car. I would not want it on my car. It might be better with a bullet muffler if you're willing to add that after.
