What exhaust system to buy?

I recently installed pacesetter longtube headers on my car and now I need to get a new exhaust system which one do you think I should get? I will not be running no cats and I will be installing a pacesetter y-pipe too. I don't want the car to be really loud and If you know what kind of horsepower gain am I looking at with the setup?

Hooker catback. I was very happy with it. It flows excellent, you can remove it easily, and it sounds great while being quiet. I would get nicer tips though.

The GMMG probably has the best exhaust note.

If you're on a budget, there isn't a better option out there than the Hooker catback. Sounds great at all speeds, screams @ WOT, and one of the best flowing mufflers available..

If money is no object, no doubt go with the GMMG system. There is a holiday group purchase going on right in the GP section. Check it out..

From what I have heard I would go with GMMG Exhaust. I plan on that exhaust in the future.

GMMG has one of the best exaust notes out there for an LS1, the best flowing is prob the LM, but has a very unrefined "nasty" tone but is signifigantly cheeper than GMMG. It really depends on your monetary status. Good Luck
