Longtubes and some true duals outta do it. No cats. Some borla xr-1's (i believe that's what they're called) are supposed to be nice mufflers.... or none at all...

Long Tube Headers with High Flow Y-Pipe and Magnaflow Catback. This has a nice deep sound while cruising and is very loud at WOT.

Long tube headers, true duals, no cats, 2.5" ID piping, and either a GMMG or Corsa muffler....wut do u guys think...?

A buddy of mine had a 1996 Z that he had long tubes, 3" Y pipe and a 4" Mufflex with a Spintech and dual 3 inch outlets. It sounded very good and for some reason, he switched the catback to a Magnaflow and it sounded like ***! I don't know if it was because it had no cats or what, but it was very loud and sounded like a farm truck. I have heard the Magnaflows on other vehicles in perosn and they sounded good. If you go long tubes with no cats and a SLP loudmouth, it will sound like a farm truck also, just my opinion. I think that the Hooker cat back is very good sounding and flowing along with some of the more expensive systems like Corsa, GMMG, SLP, Random Tech, ATR and so on. Good luck.
