Default Kooks LTs + Catted Y + LM?

How does this sound? I have LM and love it, and im tired of hearing the rasp LTs and ORY will cause, so how would it sound with a catted y?

My Kooks w/cated Y-pipe sound great. They are louder than before, but not too loud. If your LM does not bother you than the headers will not. Only really louder when at WOT.

Most people can't stand LM once you change out your stock manifolds, period. Some love it. Its all personal preference. Here is the LM page at LS1Sounds.com. Has some clips of catted y-pipes. Enjoy.

LS1...Best thing to do if you dont want rasp, but you want long tubes, ORY and your loudmouth is put a Borla XR-1 muffler in place of the resonator...This will virtually eliminate all the rasp and give a good sound...On Ls1sounds they call this Borlamouth...Hope this helps. Also catch me on AIM or PM me if you have any questions...
