Default C5 catback on a c6?

Will it work?
Say its a SLP Loudmouth if it matters?

I'm thinking no, but figured I'd ask around first.

The C5 mufflers are mounted at a 90 angle to the exhaust as opposed to the inline layout of the C6.

The Loudmouths have a lot less going on (as far as mufflers and such) than most other cat backs but still a C5 system won't fit a C6 or vise versa.
