I have ceramic coated 1 7/8 Kooks, custom 3 inch duals (no H or X with 3", Magnaflow 'race mufflers'). I love how it sounds and it seems to work pretty well. Car in sig.

Kook's LT's, ory, hooker catback. I don't think its raspy. I don't daily drive it, and its a F body. It is crazy loud at WOT though, But just crusing in 6th on the highway i can still talk to the passenger.

Although I'm not FI'd yet, I plan on running SS LT's w/ Catted Y-Pipe, E-Cutout (for the track) and a two chamber Flowmaster muffler (for DD). Right now I'm only running just the Flowmaster and it isn't that much louder than the stock muffler our cars come with.

Ricky, the above video was taken back when I had the stock original engine in my Camaro with a ProCharger D-1SC. I had Hooker headers, Hooker off road y pipe and Hooker cat back. The engine had 126,000 miles on it and we had bumped the boost up to 15 psi to see how long it would last.
I like the sound of the Hooker and the Magnaflow exhaust systems. The Magnaflow mufflers seem to last longer. Bob

I've been running QTP headers, custom 3" catted Y with flowmaster merge, and stock 2.75" piping out the back with a bullet in the I pipe and a Dynomax 3" in with 2x2.5" out stock replacement style muffler out back.

The car was quiet by comparison until you stood on it, but even then it wasn't extremely loud. I have been daily driving that exhaust setup for a year and a half now and it has been great. It may not be for everyone, since I always got ribbed about how it was too quiet.

I am making a minor change in that I am replacing the 2.75" pipe for the catback with 3" over the axel to the dynomax muffler at the back. I doubt it will make much change in the way it sounds though. There is no rasp, no drone and I can comfortably talk to anyone in the car without having to raise my voice at all. Best is my daughter can ride around in the back without getting a headache. It really isn't much louder than stock inside the car.

I can't make any vids of it right now, since it is down getting a new short block. I am interested in seeing if the bigger cubes makes much of a difference in the way it sounds. I'll get a vid up when it runs again, which hopefully be in another week.

Hooker Long Tubes, ORY, single Dynatech Race Muffler, over the axle and out like duals. Not to loud but not to quiet either. All 3 inch. I think it is going to be a little raspy with any of them at higher RPM's. Just a opinoin though. Not sure how to post a video or would.

arh 1 7/8" with catted y pipe to a hooker catback. much more tame than my pacesetters with ory and loudmouth. nice rumble at idle, can hold a normal conversation in the car, but still screams when i get on it. no rasp that i can tell yet but i only got a few hundred miles on it before i had to store it for the winter.
