Default Getting ready to do new exhaust

I have Flowtech LT's, ORY and hooker cat back right now. The hooker is incredibly quiet to me, so I just run open cutout right now. I like the sound of it other than the raw, raspyness of it. So I was thinking of doing a dumped muffler before the axle. Im prob going to do ORY to cutout then to a 40 series delta flow flowmaster...Im more worried about sound right now, since I can open the cutout and get good flow. I just dont know how it would sound. I dont know how much interior resonense there will be either. Does anyone have a sound clip of a dumped flowmaster after LT's and ypipe. What do you guys think

Check out www.ls1sounds.com They've got a ton of exhaust vids and MP3s. I'm 99% sure they've got what you're looking for.

IMO you will have interior resonance with a dumped Flowmaster.

i would suggest using Texas-speed true dual setup, its dumped befor the axle, utilizes 2 18" bullet mufflers, and sound amazing at WOT, and they are pretty quiet in the cabin, just a suggestion...

Pretty quiet in the cabin?

I don't know about that. It's not horribly loud, but it's certainly not quiet.

I do agree with his suggestion of duals though. They sound amazing and make more power than a Y-pipe setup.

well true, but when your setup before was 1-7/8 headers with dual qtp cutouts, the true duals are a god send!
