Headers and cat back question Alright, so I'm looking at some Pacesetter LT's (race edition) so that the air and egr are deleted. I'm also looking at the pacesetter ORY with a magnaflow exhaust... will this work? Basically I want the magnaflow sound, but no cats if possible. Or would it just be better for me to go ahead and get the pacesetters with the cats and whatnot?
Forgive my newbness when it comes to all things exhaust lol.

This will definitely work. In fact on my T/A I ran this exact same setup with an ORY and I loved it. Not too loud until you add a nice sized cam. Ditch the cats unless you live somewhere that they inspect for them. I ran this with a 3" cutout in the I-pipe when I wanted it ridiculously loud.
Here are a couple videos of a friends 98 Z28 with Jet Hot LT's/ORY and Magnaflow Catback. Sounds great! The Pacesetter LT's are a great way to go, but rather than use their ORY, I would recommend texas speeds ORY with the better merge than both Jet Hot and Pacesetter's ORY's. If we had to do it over again, that'd be the way my buddy would go.

Thanks Mumbles. I've seen that video a few times but it was before I even had an LS1 so it didn't really register. That's exactly how I want mine to sound, and I'll take the advice on the TS ORY.
Thanks guys, that's what I needed
Also man you need to get your buddy dave to do a 20 mph punch

Glad I could help.
Also, if you do decide you'd rather have a catted-Y, Texas Speed has a catted version of their new Y-Pipe. If you search the username "twitchtwice", he has vidoes of his Camaro with Magnaflow Catback matched to this Y with LT's. This setup sounds really good, as well.
