Default Suggestions/Tips/Advice

Ok, I am pretty much set on buying a TSP Torquer V.2....and I want my car to sound like this..

http://video.ls1tech.com/toprated/2/...3D33E41B7F.htm

That T/A also has the t2, but what I am unsure of is supporting mods. I dont know which LTs, cats, or y-pipe, etc. to go with, because I know those can affect sound. Of course I want preformance, but I also want a mean sounding car. I have heard some terrible sounding setups and I really want to avoid that.


Thanks,
Ry

Open headers. I take it as, no exhaust beyond the collectors. Fun stuff but you can't ride around like that. Or can you?

Yeah, there is no exhaust system on the car past the headers. Known as running "straight Headers" or "open headers". Its been known to kill your o2 sensors. Go with a 3" True Dual with x-pipe and 12" bullets dumped at the rear and it will sound mean.

Just put whatever exhaust you want with a couple cutouts just after the headers.
