Why do you have 3 mufflers??? You have the one power stick right after the Y and before the cut out, then you have 2 more after the cutout. Is it "that" loud??

The bullet muffler after the Y is to cut down the rasp. The two under the gas tank is my GMMG c/b

Good info! I have a GMMG cb and just put on a set of LT ARH's W/Catted y-pipe, and man it's loud and has alot of rasp? I was looking how to quiet the car down some and get rid of the rasp. I was looking at putting in the stainless works chambered muffler $154.00 but the powerstick you used is $54.00, i wonder how much of a difference between the two? Has anyone tried the stainless works in the GMMG i pipe? In addition, i saw on another thread that GMMG was making their i pipes with a chambered muffler in them? I've called GMMG several times and all i get is their voice mail an no reply??

You guys don't have the cats....i thought the rasp would go away with cats ...thats why i bought mine with cats, and it's still LOUD and rasp is bad between 2500 and up? If yours sounds the same as a car with stainless works, i might as well save the money and get the power stick!

I'm hoping that with the cats and extra muffler in the I-pipe that it will only be better than without the cats.

^^^
Trying to avoid as much restriction as possible to keep from robbing HP and at the same time get rid of the rasp. So if i we're to do it over, i would buy no cats and put in the muffler in the i-pipe.
