Default Texas Speed Stainless Steel Catback w/ Dual/Dual Tips and Cut Out

Need everyone's opinion on this system (Texas Speed Stainless Steel Catback w/ Dual/Dual Tips and Cut Out) for my 2002 camaro ss. Looking at this with a set of texas speed 1 7/8" LT headers. Anyone running this set up? Sound, fit, whatever you know about it would be cool.

I just installed TSP's 1-7/8" long tubes on my 99'. I did cut the lip/seam on the driver's side rear of my K. Other than that, the fit is fantastic. Very good quality also.

Yes. It sounds good. You can definitely live with the car. At idle, it sounds pretty good. Under load and WOT it's not too bad inside the car. It's nowhere near as deep so it doesn't sound as good, but that's what the cutout is for. It sound pretty much like the TDs did. The system has some rasp around 2500 with an ORY. But it's not terrible.

Fit is a little goofy. It sits crooked on the car. I need to get back under there and fight it back into place. But with Kooks LT and Y there's no issue with ground clearance like with the TDs. It hugs the body much better especially ahead of the axle.

I'll get some videos for you with my gopro. I keep meaning to do it.

Went from a dumped LM1 to this back to a dumped XR1. Wasn't in love with the fit and they need to release a version where the tailpipes have their own hangers like certain other exhaust systems. Drivers side kept dipping on me and wasn't going to make any permanent mods since I wasn't 100% about it.

I sold it a while ago to a fellow member on here ended up taking a huge loss. I had the cutout open more than not so it made sense for me to go back to something more simple.
