Question SLP Loudmouth Mufflers?

So ive got custom 3" piping all the way back up until mufflers (stock) they put some reducers to make it work...anyway i went to a few shops to find out pricing on mufflers and tips that would make my car sound deep/loud. Magnaflow was my first thought but the price was ridiculous. 700. I was wondering if slp loudmouth are any good i heard they are a bit cheaper? Also does it matter that i buy ones that are centered in and out? Cuz my mufflers have an offset?

$700?! what? go to a different shop first of all.

Second, SLP Loudmouths will sound extremely raspy, I would buy magnaflows, you can buy the universal mufflers which is what's used in the catback, to get those and tips should run you anywhere from $200-350 plus installation which should be nothing over $100, install should be like $60 to $80.

Either way the expensive part will be the mufflers and the shop will charge a fee on top of the original muffler expense so that's probably why they're quoting you so much.

You should get the side in center outs, that's what the stocks are like here:

So what im paying for is really just the name brand? Is there a big difference with Magnaflow and universal? Performance wise at least. Or is it all just sound? How bout turbo Mufflers?

I was saying go with the magnaflow universal mufflers... mufflers aren't going to give you a performance boost... so they could be restrictive and rob you horsepower but you won't really gain anything.

I've never heard of flowtech mufflers but there's only one way to find out.

The 3800 is going to be raspy a lot regardless.
