Loud Exhaust

What would you recommend for a 98 trans am with a 5.7. I'm trying to find something that sounds clean.

I had flowmasters but decided it was to tinny sounding. One of our members turned me on to magnaflow and absolutely love them. Nice and mellow just cruising around and when you get on it they come alive. You will not be disappointed.

SLP Loudmouth all the way

Borla

flowmaster or magnaflows with cutouts :D

i just took my exhaust off a few days back. man that thing sounds MEAN without exhaust..

Hell no to flowmaster. They don't flow worth a shit on these cars.

I think that's why he added the cutout

Shit, then I wouldn't even bother with the exhaust, just add the cutout.

3rd gens - 82 to 92 flowmaster

4th gens - 93 to 02 magnaflow

I agree my 02 has magnaflow it sounds great, no flowmasters or SLP the SLP cracks and breaks after 2-3 years a buddy of mine had his break within a year and he is a die hard SLP fan and when he wrote to them about it they told him they wouldn't cover it. So he wrote back saying he would take off his SLP PERFORMANCE sticker across the top of his windshield, and they finally decided to send him a new resn.

I'm surprised they did that.. from all of the stories I've heard SLP is a bunch of asses that don't stand behind anything and have horrible customer service.

I know I was shock to me also at first they didn't want to replace it. I would never buy anything else from them:banghead:

Flowmasters are not that great. I also think SLP is only a step up from them. Borla is my final answer if you dont mind opening up the check book

What's wrong with the LM? I think its just as well-designed as the more expensive borla or GMMG. Its stainless, 3", a good price, with a mean sound. Company ight be a bunch of asses, but that catback is quality.

The Loudmouth is a quality catback for the most part.
SLP is nothing but a rip-off though. They won't cover ANYTHING they sell.


I vote Magnaflow.
The Loudmouth sounds great on a car with stock exhaust manifolds, but sounds like total crap with longtube headers. It was so bad, I cut it off the car.

not only do they not cover anything, in my opnion at WOT at the top of the rpm range i think they sound a bit off but thats just my opnion

I will agree that SLP is a ripoff and a scam. Their claims for parts are totally off the wall. But, they do sell their stuff off of it. The only things SLP I'll ever get is the 1LE elbow and the LM catback. Other than that, I'll go elsewhere.
