Which exhaust system and why???
Re: Which exhaust system and why??? i just installed my LM dual/dual on my 98 ws6...sounds mean as hell. installation was TOO EASY....45mins from first jack placed to last jack removed no fitment issues whatsoever. and i love the reminder its there...even with my sound system <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> i guess i don't think of it as drone. when i get my headers i just plan on taking the resonator out and putting a bullit on there, as i've heard the headers make it a bit crazy. some like it that loud but i don't like police following me THAT much....lol. but for what its worth i can't complain about my LM, got it discounted at the car show too so hell yea 300 flat <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? When I first got my borla I thought it was a bit raspy and it would pop quite a bit but now that its broken in Its nice, I go with the wide open plate..pretty tame until you hit it ..then its nice and loud..I will be getting QTP headers soon and a cam so we'll see how it is then ..oh, have you seen fully polished borla?! holy cow..that guy on the board who is a polishing freak (steve 2000 ss)..anyways, that dude has it polished like a mirror <img border="0" alt="[pimp]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_pimp.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" alt="[worship]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? I like the Hooker long tubes with Hush Thrush shorties bolted right to the collectors and dumping under the front seats!

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? 700 for a borla??? just get duals put on and be done with it. best sound and the cheapest <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> you'll only spend about 300-350.

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? Man u guys can get the Dynomouth setup for like $150 max.!!!! Get the dynomax bullet part # 24222 from jegs and insert it in the I-pipe. Remove the muffler and fab a y-pipe!!
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="gr_grin.gif" /> The sound is awesome and is very free flowing. Not much if any drone!!!!

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? If you ever plan on getting longtubes, DO NOT get Loudmouth. I recently got Jet-Hots and while it sounded badass with cats/manifolds, my Loudmouth drones, rattles, rasps, and really drives me nuts. I even have the long dynomax bullet in the intermediate pipe instead of the stock resonator and it still sounds like turn 2 at Talledega. For that reason, I'm going true dual <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" />

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? Nobody likes the flowmaster sound? I do, but it is restrictive isn't it? No matter what you decide to do get a cut out. Well worth it. <img border="0" alt="[USA]" title="" src="graemlins/patriot.gif" />
Re: Which exhaust system and why??? </font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Is there any proof that the GMMG flows well? </font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Someone installed out a cutout on their GMMG a while back. Based on his research a cut out will avg at 4 RWHP when open on an aftermarket exhaust system. He picked up 3.1 or 3.2 RWHP when he opened his cutout on the dyno with the GMMG.
Re: Which exhaust system and why??? GMMG
1) Lost nothing over cutout, maybe 2-5hp
2) Nothing looks more bad *** under the car than a polished GMMG
3) Sounds amazing, can't waaait for LT's. Will be getting one for my LT1 also

Re: Which exhaust system and why??? I like the B&B Tri-Flow cat back <img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="gr_images/icons/cool.gif" /> Sounds nice and agressive as rpm's climb and has a good tone at idle.
