Tried to do a small little launch, ~2500, and um, yea.... :-?


Which was a-********-mazing to happen on the way home, about a half hour away....


My teeth are still rattling.

[sweetbmxrider]

that was great!!! i love all the thumbs up hahahahaha

its ironic that we pulled off one exhaust at swapped it on another car not even a half hour before :lol: definitely get a cut out!!! super beast!

[LTb1ow]

Mwahaha, I scared the **** outta some vert mustang on 35. I was trying to slowly get going but even then, friggen thing screams... Maybe tmmr I will try and fix it.


My head hurts though, loud ass car.

haha....weaksauce. I love the sound of my car with the cutout open and it's pretty much located where your I pipe fell off.

[LTb1ow]

Eh, your stock heads/cam and a open Y is a whole lot louder than a cutout me thinks.

[sweetbmxrider]

ya this thing was friggen loudddd. the cam sounded great though :drool: nascar yo!

[NJ346]

I "cruised" with a head/cam/sprayed LS1 yesterday and at WOT, he wasn't that much louder than me. I'll be at the circus meet on Saturday(yes, this time I will actually be to a meet) and you'll be able to hear it.

[sweetbmxrider]

i'm not gunna lie, i've been in both cars and matts is definitely louder than yours vin, but yours sounds great too. dougs is aight :lol:

[LTb1ow]

Ok, well LS1s are weak anyways, prob why they aren't loud.


Now onto the tech part of this. Can one have a stainless pipe welded to a non stainless pipe with any success?

[NJ346]

lol I guess the LT1>LS1 in this case...wait a second:scratch:

Yes, that's how my cutout was welded in. I believe it can be mig or tig welded.

[LTb1ow]

Ok, I guess I should look into that, and maybe a new muffler?

That clamp was tight as hell so I guess to much back pressure from an 'eh" muffler maybe?

[NJ346]

I think you'd need a descent amount of back pressure to do that. Do you have sub frame connectors...coulda been body flex...

[sweetbmxrider]

maybe poly motor mounts too?

want a magnaflow :lol:

[LTb1ow]

Got mounts, got SFCs.

And no, you keep your dirty magnaflow.

I was thinking a cutout since I really should have it welded up.

[NJ346]

cut-out is the way to go. Magnaflow is too quiet<<----the reason my car has a cutout.

[LTb1ow]

Woah, no one told me we were going on a move...

[NJ346]

Woah, no one told me we were going on a move...

Yea I got confused too, ****ing ghosts.

[Blackbirdws6]

haha that sucks but I'm sure it sounded pretty nasty. Might want to retorque all of your interior screws and bolts. Cutouts are great btw!

[LTb1ow]

It did suck, so so much.

I am going to check the headers tmmr and what not.

[LTb1ow]

No money for dual cutouts at the moment, but damn, 107LSA FTW at idle for nice sounding ness. :)

:shock: Your car better be at the meet on Saturday.

[LTb1ow]

Yea, it may show.

Find me a nice bullet muffler and I may pull off the catback for a bit.

[sweetbmxrider]

like a loudmout?? :lol:

that would be so siiick if you had dual cutouts on the y :drool: i stealz yo car!

[7pointoh]

Am I the only one trying to make my car quieter? I just don't like waking the neighbors up when I pull in after midnight.

[Anti_Rice_Guy]

Am I the only one trying to make my car quieter? I just don't like waking the neighbors up when I pull in after midnight.

Yes :mrgreen: DDs are meant to be quieter, toys are meant to be loud and fun

[LTb1ow]

LOL, no I can't leave it like it is now, but eh, my current catback is to quiet me thinks.

[sweetbmxrider]

a loudmouth sounds like just the thing :D

[7pointoh]

Yes :mrgreen: DDs are meant to be quieter, toys are meant to be loud and fun
Loud is fine at anything over 3k rpms or wot, but when in cruise mode, I like it a little more quiet. Plus, I cranked the car once at a convenience store and a 4 year old girl walking with her mother got startled and hugged her mothers leg. They were about 50 yards aways. There was a Hemi truck parked closer to them that cranked up before I did and it didn't scare her. That's when I know mine is too loud. Plus I can't even hear my radio unless it's turned up.

[JerzLT1]

im not seeing the problem... if you wanna hear loud get TSP true duals and take the sound deadening material out from under your carpet lol

[ar0ck]

What is this Amateur hour?

[7pointoh]

LOL, no I can't leave it like it is now, but eh, my current catback is to quiet me thinks.

Get one of these powersticks (http://classicchambered.com/classic/products.html). I think it's the same ones used on the GMMG

So I'm halfway there. Yeah I got the TD's at a time when I thought loud is the cool thing to do. Now, not so much.

That's because you're not in high school anymore. Loud was "cool" when we people are 18....usually people with ridiculously loud exhaust just want attention, even if their cars are slower than what they sound.

[sweetbmxrider]

matt loves gmmg!!

[7pointoh]

^^^I heard him say that once or twice.

[LTb1ow]

Well I think my car is close to as fast as it is loud... :rofl:

Just a bad combo of a 3400 stall and open Y pipe.... LOL

I wasn't talking about you, lol. I was just generally speaking.

Besides, doesn't your car run in the 13's? :moon::moon::moon: (j/k, I have no idea what your run, if you've even run your car)

[LTb1ow]

Nope, never run.

But yea, I was trying so hard to just not stop but it seemed like I caught every light on 35....

[maroman88]

everyone sed id get sick of the LM1 on my LS1... ive had it for a few months and still love it... i wana make it louder lol! i was in my buddys LS1 with the LM2 and it wasnt loud enough!

[sweetbmxrider]

yeah i just heard one the other day on an ls1 and it sounded sweet. stock manifolds with cats but it did sound dirtyyyy

[NJ346]

Call me a hypocrite, but I hate mustangs with a passion for this. All you need is a catless x or H pipe, and they sound fast as ****, but in reality, they are still high 13 second cars. Let me ask you this, how fast does a car need to be for you to think it's okay to be loud?

[LTb1ow]

LT1 fastttt!

[ib4200]

did it happen before i was there?

[LTb1ow]

If you are the kid who bought the T top, then no, happened on my way home.

[ib4200]

yeah thats me, my name is joe by the way, your car sounded awesome, i wish i coulda heard it broken lol.

[LTb1ow]

Yea it has that effect on people. ;)

LOL

[ib4200]

have you run it yet?

[LTb1ow]

Nope. Its just a bolt on car, so you know no records or going fast......

Heh.

[emolineaux]

i had a cut out on my 93 z it sounded pretty good but went bad so i installed a magnaflow for awhile and ended up doing a single dump before the rear axle omfg. it sounded so loud and amazing at wot! lol

Heh.

[LTb1ow]

Haha nope, tis but the truth, just another slow LT1....

[ib4200]

sounded fast and unless your actually at the track nobody will actually know the difference. of course anybody reading this knows the difference now lol

[sweetbmxrider]

[LTb1ow]

No way, tis stock!

[sweetbmxrider]

[LTb1ow]

Catted Y pipe on the car too.

[sweetbmxrider]

[LTb1ow]

Chea, burning gas makes pollutants, so my car just dumps raw gas out teh back, I save teh ozoneeess!

[sweetbmxrider]

well you better start stocking up i-pipes if you plan on spraying :nod:

[LTb1ow]

Ahaha yea....
