Technically any mufflers that make the sound louder than stock are not street legal.

Loudmouths are obnoxiously loud, though.

Depends on how the police are where you live. I had SLP LM1's on my car with an o/r H-pipe and I was pulled over 3 times in 4 days with them. They sounded cool at idle, but honestly above that was just noise no tone or anything. And I live near a college (UCF FTW!) and the college police did not like it.

Yeah, loudmouths are definitely not what you would want to go with then.

I've always been a fan of magnaflow magnapack mufflers on v8 mustangs, but they're pretty damn loud too.

Might still be too loud for cali.

yea that sounds pretty good close to what i got now though, since i put an x pipe on the car seems quiet unless im at WOT, i have a borla side exhaust kit i never put on cuz my car is so low it'd probably get all scrapped up, maybe ill get some adjustable lower control arms so i might have enough clearance for it.

I'm in southern CA and have the Magnapacks on my car. They sound great and I've yet to have a problem with the cops because of it being too loud. Just don't get on it wif you see cops around.

Cool MAGNAPACKS!!!

I have the Magnapacks on my Mach1 and they are awesome. I have a friend with the SLP LM with and O/R X pipe and it is LOUD when he gets on it. The Magnaflows have an awesome tone to them. Def would put these on another car if I had to again.
