I don't know about the LM's with LT's. Remember Nanaki's post with the MAC LT's, h pipe, and LM 2's? They sounded terrible, from what he said. The Pro chamber might help that a little, but I don't see it being much better than his.

The prochmaber tone is much different from a normal H.

I have BBK shorties, Mac O/R Prochamber and LM II's. I think they sound great but I honestly don't know what it would sound like with longtubes. With shorties they sound awesome.

Here's a clip of prochamber and slps with longtubes...This one actually sounds pretty nice...all the clips I listened to without longtubes sounded pretty dull and toneless.

Yea, I have a couple clips at home, I'll post them hee later tonight, I say go LM1"s,,, plus if it is to loud for you, the exhaust is a modular design, you can always buy the lm2's later and they slip right in plac of the lm1 rsonators,,,, FYI if you didn't know, the same catback fits 3 different mufflers
1. LM1 = Resonators, straight through, no packing whatsoever
2. LM2 = A glasspack style muffler
3. Powerflo mufflers, a lot quieter but still has good flow

I have pics of the LM1 / prochamber set up on my car, I'll post them tonight too.

if LM1's have no packing at all how would they sound any different than a straight piece of pipe

Even though the LM1's dont have any packing, they still have a perforated core which absorbs a tiny bit of sound. If you had 2 cars next to each other and one had lm'1 and the other straight pipe you would be able to tell a difference. If you're looking for a cheap way out instead of buying/trading for an all new catback to get the LM1 sound you could always go to an exhaust shop and have them weld or modify/then clamp in some empty glasspacks.
