Default MAC o/r H vs. MAC Prochamber....

Ok so I've got the SLP o/r x and LM1. I'm lookin for something different and a tad quieter. I wanna keep the catback or possibly switch to the LM2 but I can't decide on either the MAC o/r H or Prochamber. Has anyone heard, in person, the o/r h or prochamber with LM1 or LM2's? And what kinda sound difference is there between the o/r h and prochamber? Just hopin someone can help me out.

If you are looking for quieter then dont get the o/r H.

Ive heard a pro with a LM 2 and it sounded real good

I assume the o/r h would be as loud with the lm1's just as with the o/r x, but with a deeper tone. I don't mind it being somewhat loud but at 2500 rpms, it's too loud. I think I might go with o/r h and lm2's. What ya guys think?

Does it have an annoying loud pitch around 2500 rpms or so? It kinda sounds like it has no tone at all like blaahhhhhhhh.

im running with a UPR O/R X with LM2.....and i wouldnt run LM2 with an O/R H,sounds too much like glasspacks too much blatt...check it out....

http://media.putfile.com/SLP-IIs--Mac-OR-H

..and yes the O/R H and LM Is will have that high pitch at 2500rpms,fooking LOUD!...i loved it but lost too much backpressure with that setup,causing my car to be alot slower or atleast it felt that way!!

Yeah I could tell the same about losing backpressure, but my top end improved. The lower end lost some power but when it gets around 3000 rpms, it takes off like no other.

Sounds pretty good. How much quieter is the lm2 than the lm1? I don't want it to make it too quiet. I still like it loud but I want something that'll get rid of that blat at 2500 rpms...or at least tone it down a bit. By the way, what song is that playing during the vid? I can't think of it for the life of me.

UPR is a brand
O/R x means an off road x midpipe
and LM2 is the slp loudmouth 2 exhaust

Now that sounds pretty good in my opinion. So he's got a catted H with lm1's or lm2's?? Did he ever have it without cats? If it's a catted H with lm1's then I think that's the route I'm going.

i went throught the same dilema that you guys went through and now i have a mac h with a stainless mac catback. i liked the loudness of the slp's but it was too raspy on decel. i am very happy with the mac setup and its deep loud and raspy at the same time. if you want deep go with a prochmaber if you dont like it it after that then try a different muffler. by the way i am 18 and love my mustang loud but it just didnt have that much tone before i got the mac.
