Default Cadillac CTS V LSA
In your guy's opinions, what is the most radical, extreme, insane, or loudest, exhaust setup you could do on a CTS V with the LSA engine in it?

180° headers with 2.25" primaries into 4" pipe off each collector, meeting parallel over the supercharger and exiting directly out the hood into short stacks.

I request photo evidence when this is completed.

Default CTS V exhaust
Is that basically open headers?

Would it sound something like this?

What about just doing LT headers to an x-pipe/h-pipe, removing catalytic converter(s), and removing mufflers?? I must think that would sound very aggressive

I like the stacks idea OP that would be the most aggressive setup for sure.

Yup, turn up headers with individual cutouts on the roof for each. Should make it pretty extreme.

haha that would be crazy!! If you removed the primary catalytic converters, would it be possible to place cutouts directly after the manifolds, therefore allowing open headers at will?
