Default How does this look?

- Corsa LS1 Catback - Premium 3.5" Pro-Series Tips
- Kooks 1 3/4" Longtube Headers
- MTI Transparent Induction Lid
- Kooks Off-Road Y-Pipe
- SLP LS1 F-Body Underdrive Pulley
- Speed Inc LS1 Adjustable Tensioner
- B&M Ripper Shifter

Possibly HP Tuners.

Previous Mods:
-Pro 5-0 Shifter w/ LSS
-SLP LMII Catback
-Strut Tower Brace
-160* Thermo
-MTI Carbon Lid
-Basic tune (local)
-Ported Throttle Body

I've already got an MTI lid but its the carbon one and I'm not really diggin it anymore. So how will the Kooks ORY go with the Corsa cat back? I've got SLP LMII on it now and wanna go for something else. Nice gain with these new mods?

It should be a very nice gain with those mods. The only thing your missing is a ported TB and a smooth bellows unless you already have them. And IMO i would get a Pro 5.0 shifter instead of the Ripper.

Edited my first post.

I have a pro 5.0 already, just not liking it. I guess I could always go back if need be.

Well its more preference then anything there is really no need to switch back. I have also had a SLP shifter and i really liked that one as well.

Corsa is awesome. I think that you may be done with the exhaust part of your car! Nice setup.

So you think it will sound good with the ORY? I was listening to some on ls1sounds but most of the ones with ory's are h/c cars which would be way different.

Yeah. You didn't skimp on good components. They will be a little less raspy just because of the inconsistent exhaust note. You will like it I promise. I would have done it if I had it to do over to another car.

Unless you've already bought them your not going to get the Corsa with the premium pro tips as they discontinued them about a year ago.

You will have to get the regular pro tips.

So it does sound like crap without cats? I've been listening to a few on ls1sounds but they had alot of other mods and it was hard to tell.

It will sound better with Kooks LT's and a Catted Y?

Are there any cheaper catted Y's for Kooks headers? The one on speedinc is $550 bucks.
