LT's,Duals+Lowering springs? what combos will not scrape stuff and have horrible ground clearance? I want a nice drop but dont know how far the exhaust stuff would hang down
Also, what muffler, with lt's, catless exhaust will have a nice rumble, but not be raspy or nasty or too loud? I dont want the car to be TOO loud.
Thanks again!

Check out the sticky in the exhaust section, should answer many questions.
Exhaust clips at LS1 sounds... http://dodds.cc/chad/garage/z28/ls1_...true_duals.htm

my car has pacesetter LT's and TSP true duals dumped im fixing to lower it and not concerned with ground clearance to much, of course u cant fly over speed bumps or anything but its not to bad. i plan on going with Sam Strano's springs and re valved blistens if you take your time with the TSP true duals you can get them to tuck very nicely.
so my full setup is pacesetter LT's TSP dumped true duals with dyno max bullets, no cats. it screams at WOT and has quite a bit of cabin noise especially with a rear seat delete kit.
again its subjective i'd highly suggest trying to find some cars with the exhaust you want in person and listen to a million sound clips if you can't...

yup all i've heard is good about his stuff.
did you do the hose mod for the rear?
im torn between who/what to go with for other susp. stuff. heard mixed reviews about BMR but here locally BMR is loved since they are a local brand and UMI is pretty new to the market?...

hmm.... I was more concerned with scraping **** on the ground over bumps and dips and stuff than anything else...
As far as the exhaust, basically, I dont want anything that sounds like an SLP loudmouth.... My truck is loud enough so as long as its quieter than that I'm good. (vid on the page linked in my sig)

My buddy has that exact setup and scrapes over almost everything. (eibach lowering kit, Pacesetter LT's ORY and magnaflow.) IT is QUIET!!! If you dont want loud then get a magnaflow. I personally have same setup but with SLP LM and its not too loud until you go past 2 grand. I have made grown men run by revving it...hahha
