Quieting my Hooker Cat Back I know, I know, why bother? I know there are a few of us out there who prefer the sleeper approach. I like my car really quiet. I have a Hooker cat back on a nearly stock '01 SS Camaro. Some people have tried the muffler in the I-pipe but I did not want to bash in my floor to make room for it. I wanted to add mufflers to the tail pipes but I could not find any mufflers that fit. So I made my own. More work than a lot people want to go to but it seems to work well.

There was a time when firehawk exhausts included two loudmouth resonators in the tailpipes coming out of the powerflo muffler. I haven't seen many screenshots of such a system, but the one I did was a factory WS6. An LT1 I believe. So it makes sense that this works.
