Default People with LPP true duals step inside.........

After doing a ton of searching, I am considering buying the LPP header and true dual combo. My car currently has full length headers, off road y, and a custom 3in flowmaster catback.

Couple questions.......

How's the fit on LPP's new design?
What hardware actually comes with the headers and true duals (bolts, clamps, o2 extensions, etc)?
Anyone with any decent sound clips?
Anyone had these for awhile and tested their durability? A lot of cheaper stainless exhaust parts crack at the welds and have problems.

I'm pretty much ready to pull the trigger on these. I just want to make sure it's not obnoxiously loud and fits well. It doesn't need to be silent. I just don't want to attract unwanted attention when the car is "tested" on the street.

Looking for first hand experience with this combo

I have the headers, luv em for the price, I have the catted Y. As far as what they come with. Mine came with cheap paper gaskets and cheap U bolt clamps. I ditched those for GM metal gaskets and band clamps. I have about 500 miles on mine, they are discolored already.

I have their headers into Texas Speed's TDs. I love them as well.

As far as unwanted attention. I can hear mine echo a block away at 2k. LPP TDs don't even have mufflers on them so It will be even louder.

Quick Clip.

Your setup is decently loud. Sounds close to how my buddies car sounds with bullets right off the headers.

BTW LPP's do have mufflers, they are built right into the exhaust pipe. Believe it or not, it's actually an old concept. It was an option on the 69 camaro. From the shitty clips I have heard, they are not nearly that loud.

I contacted LPP about the mufflers they come with and was told that they clamp right on and if I wanted to switch them out, I could. I am going to order their headers and dual system, but don't want to be stuck with the mufflers if they aren't loud enough.
