subjective question. Do a search.

I have a hooker catback with lt's and ory. Sounds good to me. Some agree some dont.

I had Loudmouth with my LT's and ORY and it was screaming loud if thats what you want...I put Borla on my car and the rasp is still there which i like, but sounds 10x's better than the loudmouth....Also, im not sure where your from in Houston, but your more than welcome to check out my exhaust...

Its all opinion which wont help you to get the "best" sounding exhaust. Ricers think their exhaust sounds good, but you don't, or at least I hope you don't. So everyone has differing opinions.

Also, good sound doesn't usually equal good power, like Flowmaster for example. Or good sound equals big bucks, like GMMG. I can't tell you what sounds best, because I am not you.

go to www.ls1sounds.com and find out for yourself.

My thoughts exactly. I've heard some stuff where they say "this is the best" and I think it sounds like ****.

FWIW: I'm running Kook's, catted Y and GMMG and I think that's the absolute best sounding.

But do a search and talk to people who have set-ups you're interested. I've had a few members contact me to hear my set-up and I'm always more than happy to meet with them and show-off.
