Matt Miller Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I have a 1998 Cobra with side exhaust. It currently has an Offroad X Pipe and Pypes M80 mufflers welded in to a custom side exhaust. Its not loud enough for me so I was looking at the SLP Loudmouth bullet style resonators. Does anyone know how that will sound with side exhaust. I know it will be extremely loud but I think it might sound like shit. If anyone can help, that would be great.

Det_Riot Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Granted mine is a 5.0 I have borla stingers in near the same configuration with side exhaust and it sounds phenomenal imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AZSN95SNAKE Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Slp will be really loud but sound like complete crap, that is the lm1s.I love my magnapacks, really loud when you step on it but nice and tame during daily street driving. Flows on these cars don't sound the greatest but they are loud too with the right x pipe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 A local guy had LM1's in a custom made side exit, he drove it about a mile down the road, then turned around and went back to the shop and had them cut them out. It sounded horrible and he said it was unbearably loud. LM2's might sound ok, they are a bit more mild. LM1's can be somewhat tolerable with cats and rear exit, but with an off road mid pipe and side exits it will be miserable.To give you an idea, Dynomax bullets are basically a race muffler and they are still better sounding and more tolerable than LM1's. Another local guy I know had a custom side exit made with Dynomax bullets on a 347 with an off road H and it does sound pretty good, a bit too loud at idle for me though, but that's personal preference. I prefer just pretty loud at idle, and ridiculous at WOT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iRoush Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 First off, welcome aboard. Secondly, unless you are going to make it a track car, i would advise against bullets to side exit. Your car will be overbearingly loud as well as it will not sound good cruising, but it would during WOT...I'd stick with a set of magnapacks, spintech side exits, dynomax side exits, or your standard maganaflow side exit haha.

CompOrangeSN95 Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I'm running pushrods, but my exhaust is longtubes to 3" glass packs, dumping out the side. Check the gopro thread for my video if you want to hear it. It's strictly a track car and as Brett said, it's ungodly loud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Miller Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Ok,.thanks guys. I have it narrowed down to the SLP LM2's and the Dynomax race bullets. Like I said, I want it to be VERY loud while sounding good. Which one would you guys reccomend out.of those two? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Miller Posted November 20, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Ok thanks guys. I have it narrowed down to the SLP LM2s and Dynomax race bullets. Like I said, I want it VERY loud while still sounding good. What would you recommend? Which one would be louder, or they about they same? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iRoush Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 theyre both going to be obnoxiously loud and not sound very good IMO... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
95riosnake Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 Between LM2's and bullets, LM2's would be better. Bullets are retardedly loud, and offer little as far as tone, a very rough sound.For me, Borla stingers are the way to go for side exhaust, that's why I have them lol. Mild at idle and cruise, then obnoxious at WOT. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SVT Rob Posted November 20, 2012 Report Share Posted November 20, 2012 I don't think I've heard a good side exhaust on a Mod motor. Personally, I would run the Magnaflows over the SLP's, but that's my preference. As I've gotten older, I don't care for the Flowbastard drone anymore, so I've gotten out of those. I've got Magnaflows on the Cobra, but the rest of the exhaust is stock, so it's not nearly as loud as I would want it, but it definitely sounds good. I've got Dynomax bullets on the Capri, shorty headers, and off-road x-pipe, and I think it sounds great. It's not overly obnoxious in the car, but it definitely screams at WOT. Both of my vehicles exit out the rear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

F8L GT Posted February 4, 2013 Report Share Posted February 4, 2013 One thing I can't stand about some exhaust setups is the crackle upon decel. But if you like it that's all that matters. When I did my exhaust I made sure it was 100% sealed from the engine to the turn its to help prevent crackle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Miller Posted February 5, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2013 Haha thanks man. And the video of the car revving was in the garage, so the sound was kinda messed up. But yeah, its nuts from the outside. My parents were about a half a mile away at the house, and they said they heard us loud and clear lol.
