What exhaust system is just like a step below SLP LM as loudness?

Although i love the loudmouth, i feel that its a bit too risky cause i dont wanna be constantly being pulled over cause it being so loud....I want loud and deep....loud...but like not quite loudmouth loud....i dont like the sound of flowmasters though...what is like the 'second loudest' exhaust system? this would be (hopefully) on an LS6 engine with a rather large cam...about 450HP....gotta have cats on....i do plan on running a cutout but want something loud and stuff for daily driving....loud....loud....loud....:lala:

a dynomouth, take out the slp resonator and replace it with a dynomax bullet, according to LS1 owners its a great noise reduction and a lot better sound.

thanks for the reply dude :-)
What about if i had a custom true-dual setup with bullets? would it sound as good/better than the loudmouth without the loudmouth resinator?

hard to describe, itd be the bullet style sound Loud and aggresive and the nice hollow sound of true duals. i think itd sound good. Willie has a setup like that on his car search the exhaust board for his sound files.

I like my hooker aerochamber. On my L03 it sounds decent at idle, but when i get on it and open it up, it sounds just mean. and its deep not like the dronemasters. Ona big block(LS6 was a big block right? unless you mean new LS6..) it would sound badass

eeh...i was talking about the LS1 engine with LS6 intake/ heads that are better than LS6, and cam better than LS6 so its the newer one....

Heres the thing....I want something with a nice loud deep grumbly idle, dont need it to SCREAM at WOT...would rather have it be really loud but not too high pitched.....KWIM? (know what i mean?)

ooo a gen three, if u want a good idea of what a true dual setup with bullets will sound like go to www.corsaperformance.com and listen to the titanium series vette exhaust. totally bad ***. LS1s are awesome sounding engines i love em.

(BTW for some reason that car is like 3 times louder before the guy gets in it...i dunno if its that he puts it in gear and suddenly its quieter or what......and i know its not a cutout or anything....

or like this (yes...i know...its a cobra....but it sounds awsome :-D)

I've heard Corsa on a moderately built LT1 and it is pretty nice.

I had hedman LT's, H pipe, to 2 chamber flows...it was really really loud and deep. At idle, mid throttle and WOT it sounded like a beast.

I had to turn the car off to order fast food....and at 1k idle you couldnt talk to me from outside the car hardly.

It was loud.

Depends...sometimes yes sometimes no. I had hooker headers with no cat to a 2.5 inch flowmaster and it wasn't loud at all.

However when I ran true dual exhaust with a h pipe and 2 chmaber flowmasters it was really really loud.

hmm deep and loud, LS1s produce more of a high pitch ferrari on steroids sound then a deep tone. i have plenty of videos of LS1s with various exhausts they all sound crazy, the sound they make is the nature of the beast. i do know that with the loudmouth on my 305 TPI the exhaust tone is a lot deeper then an LS1 with the LM.

LS1s sound lousy.

The loudest exhaust is usually gonna be Flowmaster, especially when you are making some kind of power.

right now I have a flowmaster muffler on mine and gutted cat and it is incredibly low and rumbly even just with a stock L98 in front of it. it screams when I go WOT..

next one will likely get flowmaster american thunder system with 2055 hooker headers.
