LT's/TD's - rasp from 2700-3000 RPM I know that no car/engine is going to be truly rasp free, but even going through at about quarter throttle, the car sounds great, great, 2700-3000 RPM RASP RASP RASP and it sounds awesome again about 3200 RPM.
What's the deal there? Do i have one too many leaks, or exhaust hung too tight?
Setup is Pacesetters with 2.5" True duals and 1 chambers. haven't installed X/H yet.

Hmmm...It must be because you're not using a cross-over pipe...
I have a stock internal LS1 with Kooks 1 3/4" LT's, no cats, 3" H-pipe, & a pair of Flowmaster 1-chambers dumped before the axle and there isn't the slightest bit of rasp in that range you're describing (or at any other RPM).
Just the single best sound an LS1 can make IMO.

when it comes to exhaust set-ups on LS1's, don't worry son because we all have to learn sometime. 
haha, just messin' with ya Jonas 
Anyway, I say make the change and be done with it ONCE AND FOR ALL (if you've come this far, you might as well do what you really want). You're right though, I cannot believe how *insane* that exhaust sounds!
Especially when I got to hear it as a passenger this time while you were driving the car.

yea well it is hard to tell what a car sounds like with a video camera... You need to hear set ups in person..

Probably where it fits best will have to do.

yea i am sure i will.. get the LTs then i will see if i like the sound or not.. But the current set up that i have right now i am not dissapointed in, just want that deeper tone!
