Default sleeper exhaust set-up

slp d/d is very quite from my understanding. my magnaflows are quiet at idle. keeping your cats and adding a stealth cam (if you so chose) will also keep to the sleeper effect.

Yea man a very key element in a "sleeper" exaust is to retain your cats, you should check out MTI's stealth cams also. SLP D/D is a great sleeper exaust as JRP said. Good Luck

i'm going with the SLP 2OTL with electric cutouts in my FLP y pipe (already have the FLP's) i plan on opening the cutouts sometime between the burnout and staging. it will be nice and quite till it's too late.

The stock WS6 exhaust isn't too bad a sleeper exhaust. It's not overly restrictive from what I understand. If you team that with a cutout, you've got a nice cheap sleeper system that you can open up to get sound/power.

SLP dual/dual is probably the best all around for stealth even with no cats, they flow very well also. Plus you can usually pick a used SLP factory installed d/d pretty cheap.

I'm running Hooker Long tubes with an offroad Y.. but it goes into a 24inch bullet muffler then to a B&B tri-flow. It is pretty quiet for the mods I have. Has a nice deep sound to it, not all "nasty and loud"

SLP dual/dual is probably the quietest and best flowing for a sleeper system

I would say 2OTL with 2 bullets or something in the y-pipe to help quiet it more. Or you could go duals with an X and dumps.

TOTL is great... people look for dual exhaust when you don't have it they think its crap This exhaust is very quiet down low but when you start revin' it up it gets LOUD

I heard a SLP D/D car with lontubes and ORY last night. Not bad at all. Good sound,, and not punishing. Almost makes me want to trade in the true duals.

slp dual/dual seems to be a good performing cat back thats still quite

I was trying to go for the sleeper also but its kinda hard with this big of a cam I am going with
this is my set up I am going with
1 7/8" Kooks headers,
3" y-pipe with dual electric cut outs
1 cat in the I-pipe if its possible
and a stock cat back
