I talked with a salesperson at SLP today, and he said that getting the loud mouth on my Center-Mount would probably be considered a "custom" job (I assume that is what he meant). Like I was saying....I was wondering, since that will most likely run me more money than I need to spend right now, what would be the LOUDEST muffler I could get, to replace my current one. Also, if I were to do such a thing, would I notice a huge difference in sound levels, i.e. LOUD.

I have read stuff about the 40-series Flowmaster (that seems to be their loudest), so what else it out there.

Any comments, or suggestions would be great. And, if you can solve my LM dilema, that would be cool too. Because I would really like to get that.

Thanks,
Rob.

Beyond staight pipes I'm not sure how you could much louder than a little bullet resonator like the loudmouth?

I had the loudmouth installed on my centermount & it wasn't more than $100-$150 installed. Go to another exhaust shop of SLP won't/can't do it.

Hey SStylez, what up man.....(If you can't remember, I am mix347 on AIM). Anyway, I was talking to that guy and mentioned that I knew someone who had center-mount with the LM (you), but I remember you telling me that you had other stuff done at the same time, so it was "easier" for them to do it (headers, etc.). Anyway, I have also gotten some advice to do a cut-out. They explained it to me, and that sounds like a GREAT, CHEAP alternative. What do you think.....what does everyone think?

Rob.

Of course I remember you, that's why I replied. Anyway I love the sound of the LM & the look of the centermount exhaust. I've heard cutouts & they're fine, but I just like the loudmouth, it's a beaSSt especailly in the upper RPM's. I guess though the cutout would sound very similar. Either was you got it'll be loud.
