i know people are gonne jump me for this but i love my loudmouth catback. theres no big ol muffler on the back, just a resonator in the I-pipe before the "over axle" and after the y. i got the dual dual tips and i get compliments everywhere. i have stock manifolds and stock catted y and it idles real nice with a quiet, deep tone and sounds loud (muscle car like) above 3k rpms. o yea, you can have 3 loudmouths for the price of a corsa or borla

I just put corsa on my ws6 about a month ago...i love it, but if you are looking for a really aggressive sound then you may not get the sound you are looking for....but you will LOVE the tips. Im looking to get headers/ypipe set up to wake it up a bit. maybe even throw in a qtp electric cutout.

I'm surprised noone has said Magnaflow, yet my magnaflow was refined and subtle at idle and low revs, and really roared at WOT, for a low budget.

Check out my webpage for clips

I love these "what's the best exhaust" threads. There are a few variables to think about:

1) What is your budget?
2) What are your plans for future mods?
3) What is your sound preference?(check out LS1 sounds.com)
4) Do you wanna consider going with true duals?
5) Do you care about it being stainless steel?

If you are gonna keep the stock manifolds and cats, then you probably wanna go with something a little more aggressive, like the LM1 or LM2, Borla, GMMG, or Texas Speed. Also consider getting a cutout installed. Other setups like the magnaflow, Hooker, and Corsa are nice systems;just realize that they will be pretty quiet with stock manifolds and cats. If you can answer some of the questions above then we will be better able to answer your question. Otherwise, all you are gonna get is a bunch of differing opinions.

2 cents to my Corsa system. It took a long time trying to decide what I liked.
I would be driving around and each time I say an F-body I'd follow it to see what cat-backs they had and if i liked it and even stop the guy and ask him.
I've heard that Corsa sounds even better w/LTs, just gotta put mine on.

Borla sounds really nice if you plan on keeping stock manifolds.

You really have to make a poor decision here, and that would be none of the setups listed in this thread so far.

GMMG
Corsa
Borla
Bassani
B&B
Loudmouth allthough it does start to wear on you.

Hooker is a nice setup.
Magnaflow is a nice one.
Have you considered true duals?
