2.5 tips on 3 inch loud mouth, bottle neck???

[Camaro_Soldier]

Hey, was just wondering something. I'm leaning heavily on the SLP loudmouth exhaust system. Just a few questions though I hope I can get some answers on.

1. Won't the 2.5 tips on the 3 inch louthmouth piping cause a bottle neck affect, lowering performance? I want the dual/dual tips, but I'd rather have the 3.5 slashes if the 2.5 dual/duals are going to bottleneck me.

2. Why does the Borla and B&B tri flow cost so much? I've seen nothing about their systems that sets them apart or above the other systems, yet they cost a ton more, any body have an explaination for this?

First off, you'll like the sound of the TSP Rumbler better, because it incorporates an 18" bullet muffler into the I-pipe instead of a resonator. This kills alot of the V6 rasp we are used to hearing. For the same price or less, you get as much or better flow, and betetr sound:)

Also, no the 2.5" pipes don't start until right after the axle where the 3" splits to dual 2.5's. So it's not a real restriction.

that and the borla and B&B are both stainless steel..

and well.. stainless is expensive..

there wont be any bottleneck, since there are 4 tips.

uhm, that and since the loud mouth goes from a 3" single pipe to a dual 2.5" pipe you wont have any bottlenecking period.

i think borla, b&b, and corsa are so expensive b/c of the tips. corsa and borla sell their tips seperately and they cost $300/pair!

are yoiu kidding^^^??? i was wanting to buy corsa or borla tips but not for that much. where did you see that price?

corsa tips
borla (very bottom)

also, is the tsp rumbler 3'' all the way out to the tips, or does it split to 2.5'' at the "y" section? i want to get the rumbler exhaust and keep my b&b tips, but i think my tips have a 2.5'' inlet.

thanks for the info man

[Camaro_Soldier]

The reason can't be that they are stainless steel, SLP louthmouth is Stainless steel as well and it's over 300 dollars cheaper than the borla.

Its because you're paying for a NAME.

[Camaro_Soldier]

Yea that's what I kind of figured. Think I'm going to have to go with the loudmouth. I want the stainless steel or sure.

[T-Punk]

i would go with the rumbler, its a much better sound, and your will have something that not every fbody owner has. either way you will deffinately get a performance gain.

If the rumbler is so good, then why don't ya'll post some sound clips of it!

[OneQuickV6]

Do a quick search of this section for "Rumbler" and you'll find several sound clips:)
