Default Flow 10s or Slp lm1s?

I've already gone bassani (too quite) and flow 40s (really bassy but a tad too quite) so now im at a cross roads. I have LTs and and off road prochamber, which is gonna be the loudest/deepest of the 2?

Lol cut the ends of the 40s off, remove the welded baffles then weld the ends back on. Sounds like flow 40s at idle , but above 2k rpm they are loud as hell.

I had the LM1s and ABSOLUTELY loved them, purred at idle and screamed at WOT. I got compliments all the time, the sound was addicting. However, dawson has a great idea there too lol. It sounds pretty similar to LM1's, not as deep but definitely sounds good!

Yea that's the crappy Iphone I used to record that, they sound a lot deeper in person. They sound better recorded on my moms galaxy I just didn't do any revs in this vid.

Can't give an opinion on the 10's, but I have had all three of the SLP mufflers (LM1, 2 and Powerflo).

The LM1's sound awesome with the stock midpipe. With an offroad pipe (I have an x) they are stupid loud, and not the good kind. I had that setup for literally 1 day and immediately ordered the Powerflo mufflers (which later got damaged so I decided to try the 2's). LM2 is basically the same as the 1's but with some sound deadening mat'l packed into them, they sound really good with an o/r pipe and are plenty loud. Long trips can wear you out after a while due to significant drone at highway speeds. The Powerflo are also a straight through style muffler, and a bit quieter than the LM2's with much less drone.

With your setup I would recommend the LM2, and in a few years when you get tired of it and want to quiet things down a little then get the Powerflo's.

Damn how frigging Ironic!!!!! This morn I replaced my 40s and went to 10s! One word... Wow! I wish I did this years ago! I am in love with my car again! I can't talk on the LM1s etc but the 10s are bad ***! At idle my Vortech whistling was louder than my exhuat but no more.! My exhaust setup: modified O/r H-pipe and Flowtech LTs....

I ordered some slp lm1s, they were the same price as 10, really it was this video that sold it to me.

I went with the lm1s, honestly, i really like'em. They're super bassy down low and aren't super raspy cuz of the prochamber, and for the record lm1s are almost literally straight pipe, they'res no fiberglass packing in them like magna packs.

Little late to the discussion here but good choice on the LM1s. I put a Bassani x pipe with high flow cats and LM1 on my car a couple weeks ago and couldnt be happier. Sounds just like that vid minus that glorious Cam idle.
