Default Type of exhaust for cam?

Hello All,
I'm planning on purchasing a TSP 228/228 Cam, but before I start modding I would like to open up the exhaust and intake. I'm set on LT Headers, most likely pacesetters, but from there, what else would you guys recommend?

It all depends on how loud you want it, what sound your going for, where you live, ect.

I assume its for an fbody, if so, Id do tsp stainless headers/ypipe w/ magnaflow and a cutout. Youll have a full stainless exhaust that flows well and can be quiet or loud at the press of a button.

Kooks 1 7/8 race headers and their dual system would be the best exhaust, but on a budget I would do the ebay longtubes with a cutout to the stock exhaust.

I personally would go kooks or custom duals or a custom 4" system. The bigger systems will leave you room to grow but if you don't have big plans for the car a cutout or any catback will work. Hooker and magnaflow seem to be the quietest.

TSP true duals... Sound good (BUT LOUD), cheap, GREAT power.

This is gonna be an unpopular opinion here but..

Longtubes, ORY, Electric cutout, stock catback.

With longtubes, no cats, and a cam the stock catback sounds pretty good. But more importantly its not very loud. And when you want to you can open the cutout. I'm sure many people will disagree, but other than true duals, there is no better sounding option for a cammed f-body than an open cutout.
