Which exhaust system would be best? I have pacesetter headers with Y pipe. Wondering which exhaust system would be the best if I wanted to go with one like Corsa, Borla, Magnaflow etc? Which would draw the most power?

A catback is a catback except for the *** or chokemaster. I have 4 letters for you GMMG. The tone is great. If you want to find some sound clips then go to. www.ls1sounds.com and that can help you pick what you may like.

borla = $700 cutout...other than the look of the tips, everyone generally runs the cutout open...
Corsa sounds very nice, but is also $$$
GMMG is awesome sounding but also $$$$
magnaflow sounds good and makes great power. with no cats it can get a bit raspy in the upper rpms (my opinion), but not horrible. some fitment issues with the tips being off center is common for some reason. but the price is good and the muffler is stainless.
but figure the BEST flowing 3" catback (obviously the 4" mufflex would do better) will gain you about 15hp.
probably the WORST flowing...flowmaster...will still gain you 10hp.
the other 25 systems on the market are somewhere in the middle

I have corsa and it isnt as loud as i would like it to be but I have been told that it is one of the better exhausts and brings the most hp. It is just a little to quiet but it really does sound well.

since you have the money to spend for an expensive catback, i would definitely go with GMMG all the way. i run pacesetters, off road y, and magnaflow and it sounds good but its waaay to quiet and im also cammed. its not loud or mean sounding enough. i would go with GMMG or if you wanted to save a few bucks go with hooker catback. the hooker and magnaflow are the same as loudness i would say, but the hooker has a more deeper rumble than magnaflow.

I have the borla with ARH L/T's, catted y and at crusing speed it sounds good, not raspy at all and at WOT it really explodes.
