I was wondering about something. I am about to buy the Corvette inspired SLP exhaust, and I was wondering if the noise factor would increase my chances of both being caught or getting a ticket for making too much noise. Also I was wondering if other people who have these loud exhausts like it, or are sick of it after a while. Thanks for any responses.

Long Live Chevy.

 

I had a loudmouth, now i have a borla that i usually run wide open, never been harassed about noise, ever.

 

I had headers/ORY/Loudmouth, and now have true duals. I have yet to be pulled over for noise. Be careful, and 6-speeds help keep the noise down.

 

I've never had any problems with my car and the LM makes it pretty damn loud. It draws more attention to the car but as long as you're not going down city streets at WOT I think you'll be fine.

That is definetely a possibility, since you can see people quite often selling almost brand new LM's on this and other boards, Ebay etc.

Sound wise LM is definetely not my cup of tea. My choice for a catback is going to be Hooker.

Later!

it's all about your personal preference. for me, the exhaust sound never gets tiresome. after i installed the exhaust, i drove for the first week with the stereo off because it sounded so good. in my opinion, it's one of the best mods i've done, not for power, but for the sound.

i've never been hassled by the cops for exhaust noise. now stereo noise, that's a different story...

 

LM is defiantly awesome.. Everyone that hears it loves it..

2 years later, I wouldn't mind havng a muffler, but I can still live with it. Actually, a hooker catback maybe my next setup..

I haven't gotten in trouble, but it is a calling song for cops to flock the area.. You will be heard literally blocks away.. My gf inside the house can hear me a few blocks away.. The cats hear me even further! lol

 

I've been running an open cutout for several months, and I love the sound. I've never been pulled over, even driving alongside a motorcycle cop.

 

In a month I will be upgrading to some headers and a removable catted Y pipe. I have the LM right now, let me tell you...this thing is too damn quiet for me. I want the ground to shake as I drive by. I havnt been hastled yet with the LM basically because it really isnt that loud of an exhaust, people who think it is are apparently too old

I can't wait to get the new setup, WOT runs will be video'd and hopefully I can have someone host.

I'm thinking about getting true dual borla exhaust. SSCamaro99_3, did u notice any torque drop with the dual? How much better are duals than y-pipe with dual tips?

 

I have Dynomax bullets and LOVE it. I did not notice a trorque drop, but I did this within 3 weeks of having headers put on. I have no dyno sheets, but it FELT like it picked up (please refrain from flaming). The sound is something to behold. It's loud but it sounds better than everything (including GMMG IMO).

 

Hmm, well with a 6 speed and stock 3.42 gears, Its pretty quiet till about 75 mph when suddenly resonance kicks in
