Default magnaflow...not loud enough

right now, i have a magnaflow catback but its just not loud enough for me. i was wondering that instead of buying a new catback, could i just replace the mufflers for an slp bullett style one.

this would not be a theoretical problem if the magnaflow mufflers werent so different from the slp ones and just not sure how they would go on.....like clamp on or weld on....

98 z28 btw

the slp kits do not have mufflers. they have a small resonator right behind the cat where the catcack starts. from there after, its all strait pipes.(why its so much louder then any other catback).

ya i see what you mean about the resonators i think im gunna buy the whole catback. i think im gunna buy lm2 because i wanna do headers eventually and people say lm1 sounds like crap with headers...or do you think it will be managable?
