Does SLP make a catback system?

Does SLP make a cat back system? Because all I see is a loudmouth axle-back which basically looks like a $600 muffler delete..(correct me if I'm wrong)

And If SLP does have a complete cat back system, how much does it cost? do you have any sound clips? (as many as possible), and how does it compare to Stainless Works Retro Dual Chambered cat back system? bc they are intriguing and do sound great.

It's sold like the LG or ARH system, Headers-Midpipe-Axleback. The mid-pipe and axleback can be 2.5" (this bolts to stock stuff) for stock or 3" (Power-Flo). If you want a cat back, purchase the 2.5" midpipe and axleback. Yes, the LMII does replace just the muffler/tip section and a bit of the piping.

I'll be selling my SLP Loud Mouth II for say $350. It sounds excellent, just right loudness and no droning, wish I could keep it but it's 2.5" and the headers/exhaust system I bought is 3".

Well I wasn't going to do headers. just high flow cats and back from there. How would I go about doing that? is that x-pipe? does x-pipe make a difference?

On an auto yes the x-pipe matters, for an LS3 not so much.
An exhaust doesn't really do anything other than sound/looks on this car.

You could do any high flow cats that replace the stock config (there's a set of JBA in the classifieds), a mid-pipe, and axle back.

If you go with a full cat back, it can get expensive.

Yes and price is on the important side in my situation.
I have a stick LS3
So what your saying is I don't need the whole "cat-back" system? All I need is a high-flow cat, a mid-pipe, and axle back is all I need?
What is that leaving out compared to the whole cat-back system?
Just the x-pipe?
And what would be the difference between the x-pipe and stock im assuming H-pipe?

^These pics should explain.
Just need some HF cats that replace the stockers.

Hicompression's JBA cats - $200
Magnaflow weld in x-pipe - $80 plus labor
My LMII $300

Whole thing would be ~$600.

How much did it run you?
Because I am bouncing back between this setup and a Stainless Works Retro Dual Chambered cat back.
What would be the difference in price, sound, etc..?

Its not cheap. The catback will run you $600. But it fits well and its 3" inchs. I loves it. But I wish I still had my H pipe. It sounds more like a muscle car with an H pipe....

The loudmouth is not $600, it is like $400.

To make a full catback with SLP, you have to buy their powerflo-X pipe which they sell seperatly. The part number for the Powerflo-X changes based on what axleback you buy.

'so basically if you had to do it all over again you would just get the axle back?
