I wonder what has a better sound -- one in the I-pipe, or two in the Y-pipe?
Ya could use one of these:

The main advantage of a dumped bullet off the y is performance. It saves weight and space. It is cheap and simple. The main disadvantage is it doesn't sound good. This seems to be a characteristic of the LSX firing order. Mine is raspy - nothing like the desired V8 rumble. Ok for a race-only car. No good for a street-driven car.

I dunno..Ive got a 80 series muffler and that is some tame ****. The moroso off the y that i have heard sounds pretty damn deep and good, when stepped on it sounds pretty gnarly though.. It seems alot more tame than a cutout..

Here is my set-up. I run Hooker LT into a Hooker ORY into a Dynomax Bullet w/turdown. I think It sounds really good and gives a real mean sound too the car. Scares the **** outta all the imports around my area. ![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)

I have shorties into ORY with a dynomax bullet dumped and alot of people say it sounds mean, I'm used to it now so I can't really tell but tts about as loud as a straight pipe but it doesn't have that shitty cackle and raspy sound. I'll try to get a vid up next week when its clear out.

I went with a dumped exhaust when I installed my Watts link, since my muffler was in the way, plus I wanted the additional clearance above the Axle tube for my lowered ride height, and the cleaner look of no pipes in the rear!
I liked the way my mine sounded!![Grin](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_grin.gif)
FYI, don't point the turn-down straight down(180*) turn it to the side some, any where from 150* minimum, to 100* maximum if possible without pointing it directly on anything you don't want the exhaust heat directly on. Putting it at a angle will cut down on drone.
Here's what I just removed, to go with a slightly different (dumped) setup.

My new setup will have a 5" case, 3" in/out Magnaflow muffler into a 90*L shaped pipe with a turn down pointing almost straight back (probably around 110*).
