Default Selling borlas, what next??

Hey guys, im about to sell my borlas I LOVED the sound with stock ypipe + manifolds, but when i put on LT's with a ORY pipe, it sounds like **** @ 2500rpms. What do u guys think is a good catback for my setup(LT's, ORY pipe)??? I thought about true duals, but how would that sound?? would i lose any power?? Do they even make kits for my car (LT1) or would i have to have a shop fab one up for me. ANY + ALL input would be nice, thanks.

Try ls1sounds for some sound clips then go from there.

Thanks, I went on there and listen to the slp dual dual with LT's and no cats, and IMO it sounded pretty good. Any other opinions on this setup or any other setup??? THanks

Hooker with LT's and !CATS sounds badass on an LS1, and it sounds down right mean on an LT1. Also, GMMG would sound great, its just so damn expensive!

Really?? I haven't heard any clips (ls1sounds.com) for the hooker, but if so that would be nice, i would probally get the rear side skirt and tips because i dont like the hooker tips. Thanks,

Hooker catback seems to get good reviews with LT's and either a catalytic or ORY.

I agree Borla sounds like S*** with LT's. Go with GMMG it will be worth it!

I am about to try the different plates to try and take away the rasp, but i dunno. I think its because the whole left side has no muffler, and i think putting a full plate in will make me loose power. I could be wrong tho, i will post back what i discover with the plates.
