I'm having trouble making a decision. I don't want anything as loud as my old car: 97 WS6 with a cutout. It was wayyyy too loud on the inside for me. Couldn't hear the stereo or even myself talking! So I'm asking your opinion. Hooker is wayy cheaper but SLP I have a feeling delivers wayy better hp gains.. How loud IS the loudmouth? Is it as loud as a cutout? Let me know guys, as always, thanks.

Hooker all the way man

 

Loudmouth, cutout, bout the same loudness but the cutout is under you. Hooker would be 10 times better. Especially if you ever get headers.

 

Loudmouth all the way. The internal resinence(sp) isn't all that bad. I have no problem talking to the person next to me or listening to the radio. $ for $ the Loudmouth is the best choice. Just my .02 and that of 60% of the members of the 4th gen owners of the long island f-body association. not one of the 70 members have a hooker system either (to my knowledge)

I have owned both, and they are vastlky different. The LoudMouth is loud and sounds like a race car. The Hooker is quiet, deep and "refined". For a weekend car, the LM is awesome. For my daily driver, I chose the Hooker and am happy with the decision.

I would vote Loudmouth.
I have it on my daily driver, and I love it.
Sure, it's loud, but you get used to it

I have had a Flowmaster 80 series on my Z and it sounded good but not loud enough,so for a more musclecar sound i went loudmouth and i love it, its definately not as loud as some people make it out to be but it is loud to make some ricers scared

OK, so my next question is this, would the Hooker catback give me any gains over my WS6 exhaust? Because for some reason it's got a pretty good sound from the factory! But I want solid rwhp gains--bottom line.
