Default Question for anyone running Lt,Gmmg

I am in the process of ordering Lt and gmmg and not sure if i want to run a ory or catted y pipe. I want the car to be loud but nothing ear piercing. I've heard catted y on this set up before in person but not ory. Just wondering what most of you with gmmg are running. Thanks in advance.

I have always heard removing cats makes it much louder, not on your setup but on many similar. With gmmg, i'd say go catted. Especially if that setup you heard was as loud as you'd want it.

If you do not like rasp then you will want to run a catted y pipe. or maybe antoher route is to put a powerpack/power stick in the I pipe. I am goign that route. Powerpack in the i pipe

Here are some clips of my car

QTP LTs + Custom Kooks O/R Y + Flowmaster Merge + GMMG C/B

I have a GMMG with LT's and ORY, it was so loud I welded in a bullet muffler. I'd get a catted y, if I did it over again

I tried an ORY with my GMMG after installing LT's and I couldn't take it even for one day. It sounded good at idle and that was it. Beyond that, loud, rasp like a jackhammer - it was horrible. Catted Y, powerpack, and resonator tips toned it down.
