Default exhaust is to loud lol

well i got my headers in yesterday and the car is unbeleivably loud now. some may hate it but i love it lol im nuts. but sadly i cant afford all the tickets and i would also like some back pressure (i have mac longtubes, vrs off road x, and slp lm1 catback, with not resonators) so im looking for a set of mufflers any recomendations i dont want them to quiet the car too much cause i love the loudness but its just too much for the street.
any help would be appreciated
thanks guys

You could also just get LM2's or powerflows so you wont have to change your catback.

Stock mufflers with electric cut outs right after the Long Tube headers.

you may think I'm nuts but what i do is run the slp power flos. They are quit a drop in sound but I find them nice. I switch back and forth from them to my lm1s atleast once every 3 months. Its like getting a new exhaust every 3 months. They are a straight through muffler. Its not as loud(no where near) but have a deeper tone to them.

I wish I could hear those. Been thinking about them for myself.

Blake I have videos up on this post with Powerflos and trust me they are quiet in the inside of the cabin. I am shocked that they sound that loud on the outside as I cant tell. My brothers LM1s with stock midpipe gave me a headache after 15mins. Im not sure how they will sound without LT headers.

I just listened to that. I am usually on my laptop and the speakers suck, but I used the PC this time.

I have stock header, catted X, and LM1's. You car sounds a lot like mine...nearly the same. It is hard to get a sense for volume on these clips.

I might be tempted to trade someone for either LM-2's or Powerflos for my LM-1's.

Since you do not have LTs it should be more quiet than what I have. I would buy the Powerflo used on ebay or local and sell the LM1s.
