Default loudmouth

I'm planing on doing an exhaust on my 04 Z. I'm thinking of using an slp loudmouth and catted long tubes but I'm a little worried about interior noise and highway drone. Love to hear from anyone who's running a similar setup. Also curious about weight of the loudmouth realitive to the stock ti cat back sysem.

ti's best bang for buck with a good weight and flow well also. corsa pace car or touring heavy as stock but with a nice tone no droning. what i run now corsa extreme 5lbs heavier than ti's but flow somewhat better. no drtone but as soon as you hit the pedal slp loudmouth dont know if they drone but they must be loud by namesake. call slp and they can give you weight or check there site. small can borlas mufflers drone also but are light like the ti's and extremes

SLP loudmouths drone!!! there is a thread in C5 tech section with a guy that just got them and he cant stand the drone. Only way to run them is with stock manifolds....

Longtubes + GHL gets my vote for the best sounding setup....im a little biased though!

I believe a corvette should sound like a race car IMO. I have the LMII on my LS3 I love shifting that thing all the time awsome sounding. The drone doesn't bother me.

1. Under $1000.00

2. Lightweight

3. Built with Good Quality

4. Freeflowing No restrictions.

Oh I thought this thread was about Tirecraft.

Heres a video clip with my old 2000 FRC with H/C/I kooks LT's, and SLP loudmouth. Interior noise was horrible until I put in a partition then it was much much more tolerable.

I've got long tubes, cats an Loudmouths...

Honestly the drone is atrocious. It is so god damn, unbelievably loud. Can't talk to anyone in the car. Everyone who gets in the car says it's way too loud and annoying.


And I love it. It just sounds so good outside the car. I could really do without the drone inside, but no other exhaust will give you that sound outside.
