Default ORY into a Borla XR-1???

I have an '01 WS6 with bolt-ons, mild cam, and a wet kit. I have Hooker LT, ORY and thats it for exhaust. I lost performance since removing catback. Was wondering if anyone has put a bullet type muffler at the end of the y-pipe, or should I just step up to true duals?

i would just go ahead and make your y pipe into a dual setup.

I had a moroso spirial flow on the end my ypipe for a hot minute but it didnt sound that good at all. Did cutout with catback and it sounds much better.

prob meant he lost low end torque from having it off but not overall power becuase he would feel more up top.
