Quietest muffler options for cammed car Exhaust: Pacesetter LT to off-road y-pipe with a magnaflow muffler.
Cam: MTI x1 230/227 .591/.571 lsa 112
Is there a quieter cat back for my current set-up? Not really looking to change the LT's. I drive it a lot, and don't want it to get anymore attention than it already does. Haven't heard many cammed ls1's around. I'm kind of having second thoughts about it and might sell the parts off.

From what I've seen, Magnaflow is about the quietest catback you can get. You could put some high-flow cats or bullet mufflers in the y-pipe to help tame it down a bit though, if you think it's too loud.

Any opinions on the SLP dual/dual? I read that can also be pretty quiet. I cant seem to find the muffler alone for sale

My friends cammed (238/242 112LSA) camaro has an ORY and SLP Dual/Dual and it's freaking quiet at idle and come's alive at WOT but no where near as loud as my car with LT, ORY, and LM1 with no cam Or like 01ssreda4 said with the stock muffler if you don't want to spend the money on a Cat-back.

This is the way I went. Some people have a hard time believing that the Magnaflow can be too loud. When I installed heads/cam/headers/ory my car became very loud, raspy, and obnoxious with the Magnaflow. I couldn't stand it. I was lucky enough to find a new SLP dual/dual muffler and it sounds very tame now until you get in it's *** (or open the cutout).
hey man, i got the same cam as you. I run the MTI X1 and all bolt ons and a off road y, and magnaflow. i honestly think my setup is too quiet. im getting rid of my magnaflow and will be installing TSP duals with bullets..

Corsa I have a brand new Corsa Catback for sale that I need to sell fast. Unopened in the box. This catback has premium tips, so it looks great, and Corsa is known for a powerfully reserved, no-rasp sound. Please PM.

I have a Hooker Maxflow (straight through) with LT/ORY and it's quieter than my friend's Aerochamber with lid/catback. His was super quiet when we first put it on, but has become much louder with time.
