Default opinions wanted - catback woes

mods are in the sig...

should i go for a borlamouth to kill the rasp or go with a hooker catback? In my searches, i have read that sweet thunders or moroso spirals would help somewhat but wouldn't solve the problem if i were to replace the dynomax bullet on the rumbler

i thought the cats would kill most of the rasp but i'm not sure they do much of anything...just make the rasp sound more like it's under water.

i would like to keep the cats for my setup as well...has anyone gone from catted y to catted TDs with their TSP pipes?

thanks for the help

Give GMMG a look too... on my old LT1 with GMMG, LTs, Cats it sounded great IMO. Corsa and cats is another good choice. Good luck.

the rumbler sounds like a trombone gone out of control at part throttle and WOT when i get above 2000 rpms...sounds kinda like my 3.1 crapalier did when the back half of my exhaust fell off

the idle sounds mean as hell tho and revving it sounds incredibly scary

I've had 3 Z28s and have tried alot of catbacks....I now have True Duals and will never go back....Sounds really mean and no rasp at all! I was in the same boat as you a few months back and I had several people tell me that true duals are the way to go. They were right....
