The main cost differance is 304SS vs 409SS, Its just like any exhaust system you will pay more for 304 but it will not yellow or rust like 409. The 323 is why were no longer making exhaust systems times are tuff and people are not spending money like they use to so instead of running a cheaper product were putting exhaust on hold for a while. If you are just looking for a res delete I would head to a local muffler shop and just get a nice set of tips and a small pipe put in around here you can get it done for 50 bucks. just my .02


So after reading all the threads I could find about a resonator delete/adding a tip, I found my best two options were the SLP Dual Tip and the Volant Super Tips and here are the cheapest places I could find online.

The SLP is only 116.96 with free shipping here:

The Volant one is almost 3 times the price at 323.45:

TWO HUNDRED dollar price difference?? Can anyone justify getting the volant one over the SLP one? The only difference I see is on the Volant one, the dual tip is welded onto the main pipe whereas the SLP one is bolt-on. NOT worth $200 extra by any means. Thoughts? I'm about to pull the trigger on the SLP Dual Tip but I need some motivation. I'm just looking to get rid of the ridiculously ugly resonator on the nnbs vehicles and something a little cleaner/better looking then stock.

The SLP would be nice cause then I guess you could run any exhaust tip you wanted.

Thanks for the pics Dave! That looks great :waytogo:

Also, thanks for the insight Volant. I was actually thinking about this tonight and thinking along the same lines as you where you could create your own thing even cheaper than the SLP unit for almost nothing. If you know how to weld you could do it even cheaper than the $50 you said just by going to your local parts store, getting a little bit of pipe, and a tip and you can accomplish the same effect. Obviously, though, if someone was to crawl under your vehicle they'd notice that it wasn't an SLP or Volant product but rather a driveway job but how many people crawl under your vehicle to check that out?? :shrug:

I have the SLP as well and actually got my dad to by one as well for his 10 tahoe. Really easy install only took maybe half hour or less. Like Jeremy said had a little more rumble at start and does have a little more noise from the exhaust when cruising but not much. I put that on before the magnaflow. Def looks a lot better and well worth the price.

Sweet thanks for replying. Yea I was thinking it was kind of cheap too.. a little too cheap. But at the same time, I wouldn't want to waste that kind of money just for nothing. That's pretty much why I started this thread to get responses from people and to see if it was worth buying... and you bought two! looks like this is my next mod... :Handshake:

So are you saying there is a chance that the SLP one will yellow or rust?
