Default Headers+what else

Ok, I have decided to get JBA LTs and off-road H-pipe. I was looking at SLP Loudmouths to add to this package. Anything else I need to get? What about the portion of the exhaust that travels over the axle? is that included in the SLP Loudmouth setup? Links are appreciated. Merry Christmas to me...and you guys.

Be ready for your neighbors to hate you! haha Thats all you need. The SLP's are just axel back pipes, the stock pipes that go over your axel will be used. They are not replaced.

i think that setup will not sound good. w/ LT's, o/r mid pipe, and LM's yes it will be super loud, but the quality of sound will be like a truck. trust me i had LT's, o/r x pipe and MBRP deletes and it was NASCAR loud, but sounded like crap at times. i added some M80's before the rear end and it's much better. i think w/ that setup you need some cats or resonators. if you get the catted H it will sound better. when i ran the full pipe setup it was great for a couple days then it got kinda anoying being so ridiculously loud. heres a clip of LT's, catted x pipe and LM's. i think this sounds pretty good, this is just about as loud as you can get w/out it sounding bad.

Boomtubes or M80's (pypes mid muffler) would be MUCH better with an o/r header setup than loudmouths.

I like the sound of JBA's with long tubes and o/r or high flows as well. I also hear a lot of good things about magnapacks.

I think with L/T and O/R H just about any axleback will sound good with the exception of muffler delete set such as SLPs MBRP or Pypes Muffler deletes.
