Default NEW 1 Chamber vs. SLP LM1

Just got my Flowmaster 1 Chambers on and like I said I would post both videos for a comparison for you guys. After driving with them on for a few days even though their still not broken in yet (still smell) the sound is definatly growing on me. At first I wasnt sure what to think since they are a tad quieter, (a tad!!) but I noticed its because where the slps get loud is when they have a higher pitched peircing sound which is raspy as well (wot). With these mufflers they muffle the high pitched sounds to keep them lower sounding and not raspy at all!! I say it, my friends say it, it sounds much better then the slps and much more like a mustang should with a v8 muscle car sound. So overall Im pretty sure Im happy with switching mufflers from my slp lm1's to flowmaster 1 chambers. Any questions on them just post here and also tell me what u guys think of the new vid vs older one. 1st video is my old setup!

they both sound pretty good. they both sound similar but i think the 1chambers are a little less sloppy than the slp's at times.

car sounds great!

Just curious, where did you get your flowmasters from? What diameter size are your pipes too?

both catbacks are just meh. IMO flows don't sound too great on 4.6s and SLP LM1s are obnoxious and toneless. 40 series flows are ok with an h pipe, but everyone and their mom has that combo.

between the two, the flows do sound better.

I think the SLP's sound better. If you want something that sounds good look at Spin Tech. I hate Flowmaster's they sound like junk when they've been on the car for a couple yrs
