Why is my car so quiet with a glasspack and turn down tip? Is it because the stock cats and manifold?

It really doesnt get any louder than LM1 behind a set of LT headers without cats. I dont know if taking the cats off a mufflered system such as ws6, hooker or magnaflow will make it that much louder because you would still have a muffler. However buddys car with my setup minus cats is much louder than mine. Hes ditching it soon.

Get headers and eaither high flow cats or offroad y pipe and get the slp loudmouth. I have that set up on my 01 ws6 only with hollowed out cats and it is one of the loudest and most agressive that I have heard.

What if I ran stock manifolds and cats with no muffler wonder if that would sound good until I get headers and high flow cats

No that would sound bad imo. If you a on a budget you could do LT's, ORY, with a cut out in the stock exhaust. I would do a full exhaust though but either one would work. The only difference would be the stock cb is 2.75 vs a full aftermarket 3".
