It should sound good, but if you want deep you consider a catted h with the LM 2's. Otherwise (if doing the catted x) i agree with these guys in doing the LM 1's.

ive seen the "rule of thumb for slp's" would be

catted X with LM1's
O/R X with LM2's

im also going back and forth between LM2's or Adrenaline's with my O/R X....price may end up being the ending factor....in which case only way SLP's will win if i find them used but in great shape.

Just go with the SSS because you get them in offset/offset to be welded into your current catback smitty. You'd have to fiddle with the LM2's to get them to fit into your current catback.

Make sure your clamps are tight or you will get major leaks. Thats one of the biggest complaints my friends have about their SLP catbacks. They are so many pieces and clamps come loose and cause leaks. If i get an SLP catback, im getting v-band clamps and installing the catback with those. Thats something that i might suggest you do as well. they wont leak...or shouldnt or they arent built right. and they are quick to take off too.

Power-Flo's FTW. U can find a ton of clips on youtube, just find what u think sounds the best. U need 2 make sure that u look at their whole set up LT's and mid pipes can change every thing in how ur car sounds.

Yep, that is correct. Though I stuck with the H pipe. I had LM1's with a stock midpipe, went to o/r H, had to remove LM1's and buy LM2's. I get a lot of compliments on the road about it, the best was from a cop, no joke. With a catted x, I would def look into 1's, but 2's will still sound beast.

Edit: This is my current setup.
