The lm1 is empty inside, the lm2 has a packing similar to a glass pack muffler. I had the one on my truck without cats, pretty loud but tolerable. With long tubes it got really really loud and a whole lot of popping. I got a lot of good feedback on the sound, but in town driving you had to baby it and when passing someone otherwise you would scare them when you hammered it. I added a cutout and some resonated tips to have the best of both worlds.
