Which Mufflers with SLP Catback...Advice Please

97GTSTANG · Dec 30, 2007

I have the LMI and i want to have the resonators cut out and replaced with mufflers. LMI is extremely loud to me with the bassani catted x that i have. What are your suggestions for good quality mufflers not ofer $150 for the pair that can be welded on?

I want the sound to be about 50% less than what it is now.

SLP LM2's

they bolt right up!

as do the SLP Powerflo's but both are a little over $150

Magnaflow and Bassani sell universal mufflers as well but under $150? not sure

im a really big fan of flowmaster but not sure if they fit the catback, i have them on my car, and sound awesome with the off road x, and there not to to loud.

+1 for the powerflows , the slp LMII's are pretty sweet as well. Either one is a winner in my book.

PowerFlos and the LMIIs would be the easiest. LMIIs are quiter than the I's and the PowerFlos are the quietiest of the 3.
The IIs are quiter than the I's but not by much. They have more of a tone to them and do sound much, much better. If you wanted quiter though, I would go with the PowerFlos.

Thanks for the advice guys, I have the old type SLP catback, so the LMI would have to be cut out, i do not see clamps on them. For those that have heard both the LMI and Powerflo, if the LMI sound is at 10 at WOT, what would you say the PowerFlo's are from 1-10? I want something about at least half the sound. The LMI are too loud for my taste and my neigbors and job. lol

Thanks

I had all 3. Here is what IMO would be the sound

LMI - 10
LMIIs - 8
PowerFlos - 5-6

PowerFlo's sound awesome. They have a real nice tone to them and are not too quiet but not too loud.

bakos, thanks for the tip. I am ordering a pair of Powerflos now. I have the old SLP system, does not have clamps, they came as one piece.

Yeah, the old cat backs have the mufflers welded on. , new ones have clamps which make it much easier. You should be happy with the PowerFlos though.

I have swapped bassani mufflers on my slp cat back minor mods to the pipes and thy bolt right on center in center out muffler type,thy sound very good ,I think let me know if you want some sounds clips....

97GTSTANG · Jan 2, 2008

Thanks for the tip warrior, i think the bassani mufflers are even more expensive than the powerflo's, i dont want to spend too much money on mufflers since they dont really give much power gains. thanks again for the tip. I got the Powerflows for $209 shipped.

Do you also have x pipe with cats? Are the powerflo's deeper in tone than the LM?

99.95 each

but good luck with your desision......

97GTSTANG · Jan 3, 2008

Thanks, they are the same price as the powerflo, i have ordered those already, will update on sound once they are installed. Any idea on how much it usually costs to weld on a pair of mufflers? How long is the labor?

Warrior 102 · Jan 3, 2008

just use your clamps from your SLP's,why pay money to get them welded?what if you decide to change them again..........?
here is a pic of mine.

97GTSTANG · Jan 3, 2008

I have the old style SLP, they do not have clamps. The LMI that are on there now are welded not clamped on.

Thanks for the pics
