Default how loud would....

bassani catted X and slp lm1 mufflers be?

i want a different set up cuz bbk o/r x with stock muffs is bad but i dont want to be too loud...

now i know LM1s are really loud but my friend is selling his to me for 80 if i want them

also my other friend went from bassani catted x to some o/r x and he has his flows laying around too for 60 bucks but i hate flows


now my question is

if i bought the catted x with the slp lm1s how loud would it be?
i dont want too loud because im automatic and my car is red hahah dont want to get hte cops attention

so do you guys think it would be alright, or too loud?

the LM1s were loud as ***** on his 6.0 silverado ss

food for thought

thanks guys

I have an O/R H and LM1s and I think it sounds great. Stupid loud though...plus my car is yellow so it's the ultimate cop magnet[&:]

It might be alright with a cated pipe.

why spend all that money on a different exhaust... just get electric cutouts and keep the stock midpipe and get a couple pipes re-bent for the tips... makes it WAY louder running open heads and gives you more power and prob spend a little bit more money

I have the BBK Equal Lengths, Bassani Catted X and the LM2s...and its still VERY loud- but sounds perfect! LM1s would be considerably louder - but is would still sounds pretty good i think. I'd look at some LM2s with your Bassani Catted X...you'll love the sound!

Go with the LM1s cuz your getting a hell of a deal. Also if they are too loud you can sell them and buy the LM2s. You will be happy with both the LM1s and LM2s.

It sounds like ****, it would be ungodly loud, and I am 99 percent convicned that it will acutally decrease your WHP since your not gonna run it thru a quailty aftermarket X or H midpipe.

The midpipe helps make power by acutally creating a small vaccum in the exhaust. As each cylinder fires it creates an exhaust pulse, and when they travel thru the X/H they create a vaccum in the other pipe, which helps with scavanging.

Cutout FTL! Besides, I don't think there is a custom cutout made for our car, so you would need to have a shop put it all in for you.
