Heh. I was thinking of getting one just for track use. Not only flows it flow well, I bet it weighs a shitload less.

i took my Camaro into the dealership for some electrical work, and when the 50ish year old service manager fired it up he almost **** himself with my headers and the TSP true duals. its mellow enough at idle but screams like a freaking banshee when you open it up, i love it

I've had mine for 4 years and loved every minute of it except the one with speed bumps. I lowered my car about a year ago and it has been terrible since then. I love the sound but I think I might b changing to dual cutouts and a traditional y and cutback because of clearance (i just put my muffler on again) and sometimes a lil quite is nice. It's not fun always yelling at my passenger.

What about the LPP true dual setup. They have the mufflers built in and are stainless for the same price, and seem to be a bit quieter than the traditional bullet/x setup. Heres the thread from Aetos. Seems like it sounds really good but doesnt have as much drone as the bullets... Just a thought and another option to you. Not tryin to dis the TSP's or anything like that at all.

https://ls1tech.com/forums/generatio...id-mm-ls6.html Heres the thread with the vids and pics.

This one has clearance pics after he tried to tuck them up more...

I have had them on for about 4 months and love them. Not crazy loud at idle but at WOT is another story. I bought mine with the sweet thunders and IMHO the best sounding exhaust.

I was going to get that setup. But after thinking about how loud its gonna be,how much it will probly smell,and possibly the extra rattling+noise I decided its not worth it. Im happy with my y pipe and borla

But post vids I wanna hear those sweet thunders maybe ill change my mind lol
