Default Texas Speed Headers/ Catted Y
Thinking of finally doing some mods but don't want rasp. I'm currently running a Borla Catback. Anyone have a sounds clip of a stock H/C with TSP headers and Catted Y (w/borla)?

Any downside to this setup? The price seems right and it says they are stainless.

I don't have a sound clip but I do have their setup with an ory, looks great, sounds awesome and they are stainless. Great bang for the buck.

My car has almost no rasp. pacesetter headers, speed engineering y-pipe with custom 4" merge, 4" I pipe with 4" cutout, reduced back to 3" into the borla. 99% of rasp is from the y-pipe. It has to have a smooth transition and not be to small of a transition.
