Default New exhaust system

I plan on getting Hooker Super Comp. L/T for my 99 trans am m6. What would be a good exhaust set up to go with the headers. I wanted true duals, but was also thinking about ory. What would you say?

get true duals, but if you want an ORY and catback you can always put a cutout in the I pipe and get the same sound as true duals.

Coming from someone that's had both setups, go with duals. A cutout in a ory setup is loud, but sounds nothing like true duals.

i like the cutout b/c if you want to you can close it and have the exhaust go through your catback to save you on gas, plus true duals might get you in trouble with cops and same goes with the cutouts but you an cap cutouts.

I Had A Cutout On My I-pipe And It Was Way Too Loud. I Went To A Slp Loudmouth Catback And Its A Little Better, Now The Sound Is Behind Me Instead Of Under The Car. Just My .02.
