Default Crap, big mistake on exhaust

I thought i tool my time on buying mufflers. But apparently not long enough. I have a 94'gt basically stock. i wanted a mean loud sound. After spending days on you tube listening to exhaust after exhaust, I decided to go with loudmouth 1's. I like loud exhause and I thought they sounded good. Big mistake. After welding them on and driving for awhile and along with my o/r h pipe I sound like a truck. I love the sound of the loudmouth's at idle and up to 3000 rpm's. after that i am driving a f-150. Since i did so much retro fitting to get these loudmouths to fit I need a muffler that is center in center out like the loudmouths are. I dont have a lot of cash since I just put gears into my car. But hell I am embarressed to drive it now. I dont want to make the same mistake again. I was thinking of the spintech pro series mufflers. But again listening to them on you tube is a lot different then hearing them on my car. And also they are $200 for the pair. Dyno max bullets are a lot cheaper but how do they sound. I know everybody has their opions but what are my choices with center in center out?. Thanks

Have you thought about going with flows? You got the H-pipe already. If you want an aggressive deep sounding exhaust, flows are the way to go, especially if you're on a budget..

Personally I run 40 series flows and a bassani off road x pipe on mine and I love the way it sounds.

Why not the SLP Powerflo's (adderMk2)says these sound really good! and not like a car riding around town with no mufflers on it? go to you tube put them in and listen, try to match your set up..Good luck!

Cool

I have LM1s and i love the way they sound but i know everyone has their own likes and dislikes in the way of exhaust tones. if you want something a little less overwhelming you might want to try the LM2's from what i hear they are a mellower sound than the LM1's

This is all you need....as long as you didn't chop up your h-pipe as well. You most likely just need a new set of flow tubes as well with the mufflers to come back to where you need to be.

The pro dumps sound great, especially if you add tail pipes.
