I've ran it every way except for with stock manifolds and cats. With LT's ORY H/C it's pretty raw and raspy daily driving in the lower rpms. WOT is freaking awesome though! I added Maggie HF cats and it really cleaned up the sound. It's very civil for a DD with cats yet loud enough. It still roars at WOT.

I bought the muffler only off Ebay but the whole kit comes with a lifetime warranty to the original purchaser.

I can't comment on longtubes with any heads/cam. I have it with Pacesetter mid-lengths and the stock y-pipe and cats so far, not really any other mods done to the car. I've had it on for over a year and I love it. I can tell it got a little louder than when I first put it on. At startup it gives a hint of the power, and idling it's pretty quiet with a little throaty gurgle to it. I love WOT though it sounds mean as hell! I can't wait to get my new y-pipe in. I can't really compare it to any other exhausts either though, besides the stock one. I'm sure someone will post this but www.ls1sounds.com. sure you've seen it before too. Just click on Corsa and you can hear most of the ensembles for yourself
