GMMG Catback or Hooker LT's? So I'm at the point where I'm thinking of either getting some new Hooker coated LT's with a TSP ORY or picking up a used GMMG catback, thoughts? Btw, I care more about sound right now but performance and flow is nice too. :D Also, I will probably eventually getting both but right now I don't have that much money and shouldn't really be spending it modding the car but oh well haha. Also, the GMMG catback would be without the tips and have my CME tips. |
You will never get the sound you want with out LT's. Take my word on it. |
you can get headers at a pretty good price anytime. used aka(discounted) gmmg chances don't come to everybody everyday! get the gmmg and lt it later |

true duals.........gmmg sounds like ass |
I have GMMG. Click soundclip link in my sig.. You will want to run a catted y with the GMMG. I have a cam and it is raspy i how ever do not mind it. But i will be adding a powerpack muffler in the I pipe |
get the headers, especially if you have a factory SLP exhaust. you'll gain a lot more power from the longtubes. |
get the headers |

So thats with a ORY in the sound clips then? I think that sounds pretty badass. How bad is the interior drone going down the highway with that setup and is your car an A4 or M6? I want my car to be loud at idle and when I'm cruising around getting on it, but don't want it to be annoying on a couple hour trip down the highway since it is my DD in the summer. Here are some clips driving the GMMG http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9...h_MOV03321.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9...h_MOV03322.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9.../th_InCar1.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9.../th_InCar2.jpg http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i9...ftingGears.jpg |
I bet your neighbors love you from some of those clips haha. Is that with just the GMMG or with the setup you have now? Also, yours is going to be louder most of the time with the M6. |

Ok I'm thinking of going with Hooker LT's + TSP ORY + Stock SLP dual/dual catback for now and then GMMG later on. My roommate has QTP LT's on his Z right now with a stock Z catback but he is wanting to do true duals or magnaflow catback. Btw whats to gain from a Merge? And don't some Y's have them built in? |
Yea you could always get some coated pacesettlers and still get the gmmg... Theres were some kooks in the eastern section for 200 or 250 and they were 1 7/8.. Just food for thought.. |

Any X or H-pipe will work in true duals, because they're so "easy" to make right. But, I guess the Y-pipe is just a little harder to do well. So, a lot of people who make Y-pipes just buy the merge to make the job simpler. The Flowmaster merge is popular on this site. |

Here are some clips driving the GMMG gmmg no question, as long as its decently less than new. the catback is very rare, and even more rare to be for sale. save you $$$ in the end and will still be louder than stock. plus i would think stock would be raspy with lts. |
