Quieting my Loudmouth!

Quieting my Loudmouth!
I really like the sound of my loudmouth exhaust, but its almost painfully loud at times and I know I wake the neighborhood when I get home at 2 AM. I need to quiet it down..
I've been reading up on LM and the various ways of quieting it down with bullet mufflers. I've heard a lot about Dynomouth, but very little about Borlamouth.
Which of the two will quiet it down more? How much will it change the way it sounds?
Suggestions greatly appreciated!

I put an 18" generic glasspack bullet muffler in the left tailpipe in the same location as the stock muffler. In effect it was a poor mans Borla. It worked great. It sounded wonderful, was still loud but nowhere near like it was, and it eliminated all the resonance. Best $40 I ever spent.

Yup! LoudMouth. I loved mine when I first got it a year ago. Then after about a month I wanted that LoudMouth to shut the ... up! So I had this terrible custom job done to it. So terrible that I'm going to remove it...
Basically, I took it to a guy who removed the pipes and welded in a stock muffler. After about a month of being silent... I missed all that annoying sound. To fix the problem of my indecisiveness, I got two QTECs and put them on my Y-Pipe... the one from SLP that came with their long-tube headers. So now I have the option of being stealthy quiet, and disgustingly loud! I love it!! (You shoulda seen the look on this one Cobra owner's face! )
So, I think you should get a muffler to silence your car somewhat, and maybe a single cutout, or maybe dual. Once you're quiet, you'll end up missing all that noise!

Maybe I can save you some headaches. Send me a pm and maybe I can let you hear my car. Im someplace in your neighborhood. I have it so I can take out the resonator and add a chambered muffler in its place anytime my mood changes. Different sound loud when needed not so loud while driving. Not that I consider the LM loud. Its all relative, and personally I dont care who I wake up at 2AM. And I live in an old folks area. Im no youngster but I do like my F-body.

You will get your payback someday. Inconsiderate people always do.
