What is your setup budget and what do you want out of it?

Do you know how any sound or look also?

I would go with the TSP Rumbler cat-back. its cheap, flows better than all the ones up there, and it sounds bad-***... kinda loud tho. Check out LS1sounds.com if you havnt yet.

just installed my slp loudmouth yesterday, don't know crap on how to work on cars but we had it done in an hour, super easy to do, when i cranked it for the 1st time i haven't quit grinning yet, it has a deep sound and it gets a little hi pitched at 3000 rpms and just crazy when wot. if you want a sleeper, don't get this, but if you want people to know you are coming get it, this is why i have a transam, not a 4 door sedan, i want the sound of a muscle car, low rpm and hi rpm, just my opinion, and you can get it for 335, get someone to price match it with free shipping, that is what i did, you can pm me and i can tell from whom

I have had Loudmouth, Chokemaster, Borla, and have lots of friends with Magnaflow. Borla is the best sounding of them all IMHO.

are you planning on getting headers down the road? If so look in to hooker. Hooker is just a little louder than stock on the manifolds. Once you get headers and an ORY or catted y-pipe for that matter, it wakes right up. The other nice thing, It's probably one of the least expensive ones out there too. I paid around 300 shipped for mine

IMHO I would opt for Magnaflow. It has a good tone, although quieter than Borla, not as raspy. Magnaflow has a great WOT tone compared to Borla.

Explain how the TSP Rumbler flows BETTER than the SLP. The SLP is 3" all the way back and has a hollow resonator, not to mention it is made of stainless. Wheather the TSP is made with a hollow resonator or not I dont know, but it doesnt flow BETTER.

I voted borla def. the best sound. Plus later if you go with longtubes and no cats if wont sound like ****.
