Straight pipe catback
Straight pipe catback I found a used custom catback exhaust. It is a stainless steel straight pipe setup, curious if it would sound good and if it would offer any performance gains?

If it's 3 inch mandrel bent then I'd buy it and add 18 inch bullet muffler to the I pipe basically turning it into a Dyno/Borla/MagnaMouth or heck you could even buy a SLP Loud Mouth resonator and it would be a Loud Mouth.
It looks like the dynomax bullet catback....without the dynomax bullet. It would sound decent on stock manifolds/cats. With headers you will want some type of muffler like a Borla or Dynomax in there.
I would keep it and add two flowmaster 10 mufflers onto it, I always liked that sound with LTs.

Nahhh. save your money, your gonna have to pay for a muffler/bullet, reweld it, and you could be very disapointed. Do it right the first time. Pay the extra 2-300$ and get a quality catback that's brand new (lm1)...better yet get some duals. I went through flowmaster cb...slp lm1 cb...then duals. I should've did it right the first time.
Yeah the seller was not informed with anything about the exhaust.
So i picked up a barely used Borla (less than 5,000 Miles) for a really good price, it came with the plates and bands and clamps...but im not sure i have everything or if i can just use my SLP Dual/Dual piping to make up for what i dont have.
can you guys tell me what im missing, if anything to go ahead and install it?

Stick it in there and find out, lol. Worst case if you can't bolt it right up a shop should be able to make them meet for a few $
