Default Exhaust choices

I have a few options on how to do the exhaust for my upcoming mods
I am putting a VRX5 cam in the car with all supporting mods.

Options:
A) LPP Headers with TSP True Duals (Sweet Thunder) <-- Leaning towards this
B) LPP Headers / ORY, SLP Dual/Dual with e-cutout
C) LPP Headers / ORY, SLP LM1 with e-cutout
D) Possibly ARH 1 7/8" (And Y if that setup) with any above option. Not sure though.


I won't make a poll. Just looking for some input. Ive been trying to sell my dual/dual for a little while now but having no luck. https://ls1tech.com/forums/lsx-parts...dual-dual.html if your interested. If I keep it fully polished stainless exhaust from front to back

From a power standpoint I understand TD will outperform even a cutout, correct? If I go cutout route which do you recommend to buy?

I vote B, your car will get louder with the cam, and if you want to be loud, you just need to open the cutout

The only reason lm1 is on there is because I have one on my car right now. I think I have a buyer for the D/D so ill go with A

I rarely drive my car (2500) miles a year and have SLP LM1 exhaust. I plan to throw LPP headers on in the next month. My SS isnt a daily driver so im not too worried about it. I have talked to a member on here who has the LPP headers/SLP lm1 exhaust along with cams and he says its real loud. It sounds great at idle and WOT but "some" raspy at 2000-3000 rpms according to him. I believe hes changing up exhausts. I hope this helps.
