IF you get slp's, ive heard that LM II"s are the only safe bet for 4v motors

where as if you get Stingers, you'll get more volume than the LM II's, and 'most' people are a little more favorable to their sound

its your opinion though, LOTS of people cant justify 700ish dollars for sound when they can get other sounds for alot less

all i know is that with stingers, you'll be more unique

good luck though

don't bother paying the bigger price tag. it's not going to offer any performance difference. they're all SS. you're just paying for a stupid name.

Stingers are more refined, and louder

but its all preference

i can understand if you dont want to spend the extra dough on stingers,

in fact, i would say go ahead and buy them, save the dough

louder than LM2? ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhh k buddy. the borlas both acer and i heard that some random guy had were nowhere near the loudness of the LM1 or LM2. it didn't even sound all that great. they aren't worth the money. as i said, you're just paying for the name. your opinion is biased since that's all you've owned. my opinion is more biased towards SLP, but i also recommend magnaflow for people who don't want loud systems. i know a good price vs performance vs sound.

i just can't see the sense in spending $200+ extra for those other systems when they just do the same thing all other exhaust systems do. which is they give you a more unique sound, just as all of SLP, flowmaster & magnaflow do.
