I had an SLP LM1 on my '94 Z28 and it was deafeningly loud, but sounded good. I heard that they made the LM2 quite a bit quieter which may be a good thing.

A lot of how the exhaust sounds depends on the motor itself. I swear my car was louder with the tbi 305 and actually got quieter after I swapped in the lt1 350. Sometimes I wish it were louder, but my wife already hates riding around on it with it as loud as it is. I have a stock lt1, hedman headers, true dual 2.5in exhaust, and dual thrush chambered mufflers.
My good buddy Dan, his iroc vert 5.7 tpi is way louder and meaner sounding than mine, he has some sort of flowmaster on it. But who cares if his is a little but louder when I leave his a$$ in the dust at 6k rpm!

Ps, if I ever replace my mufflers, I'd go hooker aero chambers. Paul's car was probably the baddest 3rd gen I've ever heard. R.I.P.
Paul, did you ever sell your exhaust? Or did that go away with the rest of the car?
