I tried searching but didnt see much. Im wondering how quiet an LS1 TA would be with headers, off road y, and stock cat back? I was thinking of doing this and using an electric cut out when i wanna be loud. But how does it sound through the stock cat back? I just wanna be able to be quiet when i want to be.

Thanks

It won't be real loud. A catback would sound better.

I have MAC mid-length headers and ORY with the stock catback. It is not very loud at part throttle. It does get louder at WOT. It sounds fine at WOT or under 2000rpm, but rather undesirable otherwise.

i think it would be pretty quiet because i have longtubes and ory with a magnaflow catback and its still not very loud..and the stock catback should be even quieter than the magnaflow

i had lt's y and stock cb for awhile and it was quiet, until the cut-out was opened

Alright that helps. I just want to be somewhat quiet when im pulling in late at night. What are some quiet cat back systems?

I have ran a stock SS catback with longtubes and ory. It's very quiet, and does rasp under throttle.

i ran it for about a month before I bought the SLP Dual/Dual. It sounded way to high pitched. My freinds called it the Ferrari. It def did not sound how I expected it. I would just buy a quiet catback while your at it. I love the way my car sounds now!

The ORY is going to be thekink in the setup. Cats quiet the setup more than you think.

And once you put on a cutout it will be pretty raspy (don't know if you like it like that or not).

IMO... keep the catback you have, get LTs and a catted Y. It will be a lot louder (cutout open) and quiter (cutout closed).

The only concern would be the type of sound from the cutout (behind the cats)... It may not be to your liking (a lot of it is taste). I loved it when I had this setup... I wish I hadn't messed around with it.

Good Luck!

no hp will be given up with having a stock catback, headers, ORY, and cutout...

look in sig for proof

the cutout is the key...otherwise torchd is right

Here is a cold start with the cutout open. The sound quality isnt the greatest because of how loud it is.

Same as above just warm start with revs. 4K being the highest.

Chris why have you not gotten a c/b yet?

because i am just a slow cam only car...

i am getting full flow out the cutout, which frees up more hp than any catback out there today...

so my electric cutout has the best of both worlds, makes the most power than a catback, and is cheaper (under $200)...

one way i might go is throw a bullet on and drop the weight of the catback...but there goes the quiet...might as well just put extentions off the headers then...

ive had lt, ory, no cats and a flowmaster cat. it didn't sound loud for ****. But then again i believe it was the 80 series and not the newest one.
