OP, i have a 00 z28 with pacesetter longs x pipe no cats and no mufflers and i drive it 45 min to work and 45 min back home and to be honest the smell is not bad at all, cant even notice to be honest with you and as far as sound it is very mellow at crusing speeds but is LOUD when you go to get on it. as far as gas mileage i drove from upstate ny down to mooresville nc and only filled up twice on the way down and twice on the way back lol but mind you this is all on a stock block.

im running BBK LT's, and ORY, i dont think it's overly loud, def not quite though. i also dont mind the smell, but if you really hate the smell you could always put some fragrance in there, then it will smell amazing!! iv'e used a few different scents in my bikes before, stuff is awesome smelling.
this isn't the kind i used, but i just did a quick google search to show you.

I thought they fixed this with their new ypipe design. I believe your referring to the old style. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Small gas smell for those driving behind you, other than that I never smell it unless I have to come to an abrupt stop and the gas cloud passes me for a whiff.
If that smell bothers you, you're a sally.
And yes, loud indeed. lil raspy but under WOT sounding like NASCAR.

So you're going WOT and I assume moving at a good rate of speed. A stock LS1 at WOT is already pretty fast. So, while your moving at a high rate of speed going past some coffee you were able to look into it and witness some guy falling off his chair from your loud raspy car. Now moving at that speed, you would have been a hundred feet away from that coffee shop before the guy even hit the floor.

The setup really is too loud to have fun with on the street though.

+1 on NOT going with Flowmaster. Get a quality ORY and catback and it will reduce the rasp a lot.
I went from SLP LTs, SLP ORY, GMMG to Kooks stepped 1 3/4"-1 7/8" LTs, X, TDs. Went TD to eliminate RASP although the GMMG did a good job taming it and was nice and loud at WOT.
