Help choose my new exhaust setup!

Okay... So my CURRENT exhaust setup is...


Mac longtubes, catted bbk h pipe, slp lm1 catback. Its a little TOO quiet.

prior to this. i had an offroad h pipe in it.. too annoying loud with not a good tone.. just sounded like gun shots at wot.. annoyed me..

Im thinking of going offroad again. BUT with a new muffler in my catback..

i do NOT want flowmasters. so what is a better option in tone.

i want it to be loud, but not sounding like death lol..

i was thinking borla stingers or something? my buddy has xlr1 muffler or something and his sounds good.

Help please! thanks guys!

Yes those look to be stingers as they are round in shape. I can set off car alarms when I get on it. There are many choices on exhaust but I like Borla for that mean angry growl they give off.

Re: Help choose my new exhaust setup!

I have an o/r x pipe with spintech mufflers with 3 1/2" shotgun tips. Sounds amazing. A lot louder since I changed to an o/r x. Good rumble when cruzing but loud as heck when I get on it.

Re: Help choose my new exhaust setup!

Can't get any louder than LM1s, they are just straight pipe.

I think you'll be much happier going back to the o/r h, and getting magnapacks or stingers to weld in.

Can't blame you for hating the o/r h and LM1s. I had an o/r h and straight pipes once upon a time and it was terrible!

Re: Help choose my new exhaust setup!

Still going to sound like a wet fart.

Offroad mids and a glasspack will do it every time. Doesn't matter if its a stinger or a magnapack.

I have heard tons of youtube videos of my setup im getting and they sound great..... has a great rumble to it. rather than offroad and lm1's just being ridicuous and annoying loud with no tone, just sounds like popping....

Ill post some videos after i get it all on.


offroad pro chamber and stingers. sounds amazing.

Re: Help choose my new exhaust setup!

Install SLP powerflo muffs, would be night and day!! Or maybe even the LM2.

I'm about to go with something quieter, thinking Spintech Sportsman.

Re: Help choose my new exhaust setup!

Very good. See if they will bolt in place, the LM2 will for sure and will sound much better. But I'd prefer the power flo's

Re: Help choose my new exhaust setup!

Rygi's Mach had powerflo's and they sounded amazing on his car.

http://youtu.be/nCMcbRuImzM

That one sounds MONEY!

This is more what I'm looking for but with LT's and O/R X. Therefore I may need the Sportsman's
