if you're going with LM's you probably want your car to be loud. go catless, it's way cheaper and gives beautiful rumble. i love my exhaust set up. passing though my college parking lot if i rev my motor to 5500rpm the alarm goes off on half of all cars haha. and for emissions you can get a set of MIL eliminators for $60

i have SLP LM1 with a mac o/r x-pipe. Some people say its too loud but you get used to it really fast. You just have to know how to drive it properly. I shift under 2500 rpm and it sounds stock. No problems with cops. When im on it though, its REALLY LOUD.

O/R X with LM1's is going to be ungodly loud as already mentioned. Catted with LM1's is the way to go.

I believe bbk's x-pipe is not a true x-pipe, So I've heard. Check out the UPR o/r x.

Thanks guys! And yes i want it loud, i been listening to videos on youtube of the o/r x-pipes and the LM1 exhaust and i love it, the wide open throttle noise is insanely sweet sounding to me i want to be heard for along ways, and at the track i want it to make some noise. my only thing was is the back pressure, but it will be fine!
