factory SS exhaust
factory SS exhaust hey everyone,
I am having to put a new catback on my car b/c I have to tone it down some due to the fact that i am moving and the place i am moving has regulations on sound levels.
So i was thinking about putting an SS exhaust on my car b/c i can pick one up for very cheap and I will just add a cutout to use as needed.
edit: it is the dual exit exhaust and not the single tip. Also, it does utilize 3 inch piping doesnt it?
I was just wondering what the SS exhaust sounds like with an ORY and a mild cam. Couldnt find anything on ls1sounds.com
Thanks

I have stock catback with Pacesetter LT's and ORY, stock cam. I think it sounds pretty good. Quiet, but deep at idle, a little louder when I get on it. It does get raspy if I floor it when it's at around 2000 rpm or so, but I think sounds good the rest of the time. Don't know how much different your cam will make it sound, I'd say do it.

The stock SS exhaust is going to have a deep, slightly louder than normal idle. When driving, it's extremely quiet. Even under load, you'll hear more engine noise than exhaust. Super quiet, super sneaky.
thanks for all the comments
DMNSPD: it belongs to a good friend of mine and he has not told me exactly, but i imagine it would be ~$75-100. He wants me to look at it first b/c he said there was a ding in the muffler, so i think he just wants me to make him an offer. It also already has the cutout welded to it, so that is a plus, just have to bolt it up.
badandy: love the pic, hilarious. What movie is it from, it seems so familiar, yet so distant..lol. Also, back to exhaust, sometimes i would like to be able to hear the mild sewing machine action of the valvetrain and of course that wonderful header sound.
Does the SS exhaust have a 3 inch intermediate pipe?

Verdad Gallardo So what do you guys suggest I do, here are options:
1) place my y-pipe w/ MAC cats back on (yet i really hate cats, especially those MAC's)
2) buy the SS exhaust and have a cutout
3) place a XR-1 in place of the resonator
I think the best option is 2 (more sneaky, sneaky as badandy would say.lol), but just wanting some opinions
thanks again
