Here's a thought, put all the stock parts back on the T/A and drop the price!! or sell me the headers and I'll give you the MACS I got to put back on it That should give you a little to invest in the road warrior

IMHO the loudmouth sounds like crap. Get the GMMG and be done with it

Some people would perfer not to waste another $400 just for a slightly better sound, and even more so considering the GMMG doesn't flow better either. But to each his own.

Thanks for the link! Another question might be, of what performance value is this system?

I'm not sure how much rwhp I've gained with the GMMG, but there is a noticeable difference! I've never dynoed my car, so until then I would say a good 10-15rwhp. As soon as I create a website for my car, I'll have more GMMG exhaust clips than anyone on the net

Cmon man, Ive got that combo and the rasp/drone went DOWN when I put on headers with the cats. Believe me this is the catback you want. Hit me up on aim and i can send you some vids of my car at the track with just the LM on. One in car and one from the stands. One 9er Z

Ill agree it may be a little much, once you get a cam but for a stock internal bolton car it still is great. Crusing sound is minimal and havn't been harassed by cops.

I was also worrying about this same thing myself. I was really town between the Corsa and GMMG because i'm planning on long tubes in the future. Then I realized that I won't be getting long tubes in the NEAR future.

I ordered a Loudmouth which I got on sale from http://www.tbyrne.com I also put on the SLP y-pipe that I bought used from my friend. It thankfully does not replace the cats. So I put all my exhaust on one night, and I was very worried it was going to sound like crap. I got all done, turned the key, and I was VERY happy with what I got.

It's loud, but not too loud. At idle, it's perfect, and under acceleration, it screams w/o being obnoxious. I think it'll be too much with the headers, but again, I don't plan on them anytime soon. I would also suggest keeping the cats as well, because that will help with the popping and raspyness.

The only time it pops is in the morning a couple times through the gears, then it goes to normal once everything gets nice and warm. I say go for it.

I got it on an LT1 with the ORP and mac headers, ask MY84z when we were at dyno day last what a loudmouth sounds like with headers, it'll blow your eardrum out and at WOT you can't hear yourself think, some people like that, me when I do my Hooker LT's I will be ditching the loudmouth for a mufflex system which IMo sounds better equally with headers but not without.
