Very legal and very loud. If your planing to run Lm1's with a mid pipe it sounds bad azz but i hope you dont talk to your passengers too much cuz you will havta yell just to have a coversation LOL! Hopefully you atleast have a 5- speed so you can control the gear your in. that will help a little.

With a stock midpipe they'll sound great, and completely tolerable. With an aftermarket midpipe you'll want to go for LM2's.

Agreed, that is what I did. With it being a modular system, it takes 10 minutes to switch out the resonators. If you don't feel like switching to lm2's later, just make sure your new mid pipe is catted whenever you decide to do that. An o/r pipe with 1's is tickets waiting to happen. No video on youtube does that sound justice. I think there was one called "really loud gt" mine was a hella lot louder. I would recommend, if you decide to do it, the slp catted x, because that is modular too and if you ever decided to go with LT's you can switch from a full length mid to a shorty. sweet huh?

Dont forget that you can then take the cats off too whenever you would want to and then if you dont like the sound, you can put them back in to make it slightly quieter.
