Default LM2 Volume vs flow volume?

I am going to be getting an SLP LM2 catback this spring when my car comes out. How does the volume of the LM2 compares to a Flowmaster catback?

Most of the people around have just flowmaster catbacks and I didn't know how loud I would be compared to them. Hopefully louder. At first, I am going to be running the stock midpipe for a while so keep that in mind. Eventually I am going to be getting a Catted H-Pipe. How much will the new catted midpipe effect my sound and volume?

itll be louder but i think the chambered mufflers sound more muscular and deeper sound.

the thing i like about the lm2's is that they are quiet when needed but you can be very loud when the time calls for it.

if you havnt, watch my video. gives you a good idea of what the 2's sound like, ofcourse it doesnt compare to the sound in person.

A kid I know has and older integra. Pretty much riced out. Anyway... his car is very loud. Doesn't sound good, but it is loud. My other friend says that no matter what I do with my exhaust it won't be as loud as that. I don't care if it is as loud, but it just seems like I could beat that in volume.

lm1's with any o/r pipe, it will be louder but wont sound all that great.... unless hes running off headers

He is running headers, high flow cat and a can. Not a big deal if I am louder. Mine will sound better.

I don't personally like LM1's. Especially with an o/r mid pipe. I want LM2's with a catted H. I just cant afford a midpipe for a while.
