What to do, what to do..To QUIET! Whats up guys? Well, I have a Magnaflow catback. Now, dont get me wrong, its nice and does sound decent. However, I would love to have TDs under my car. However, I have the brace mounted UMI TQ Arm. So thats a no go. I am basically stuck with a y-pipe setup. But, its too quiet! I already have Lts, ory on there. I have currently the F14 cam. But, going to be swapping out for a MS4 or similar custom grind. What I want is, well, basically. I want to wake the motherf*&^^en dead with my car. So I have been thinking about going with a TSP Rumbler but swapping the Dynomax with a chambered muffler. Think that will work? I have been SEARCHING for a vid of a similar setup. I find a few, however there all basically stock cars. Finding very few that have Lts ory and a larger cam. If you have any, help me out. Thanks.

I've never heard the Magnaflow in person but is it really that quiet with ORY, LT's and a cam?
I'm surprised.
A less muffling muffler would appear to be an option.
You could still go duals if you wanted, there should be enough room for a H pipe setup easy. And if you want an X it's still possible. As long as the torque arm is the one for LT's it should have a bulge/loop where it hangs lower on one side for the exhaust. If you pick the X pipe carefully you should be able to locate the middle of the X in the loop. It'll just require custom fabbing.

I recently heard the LM on a 2001 ws6 with lt's/cats and I don't think it sound GOOD at all..just NOISY..I am surprised so many like the sound.
You really should hear mine, take the cats off and add a cam. Was at a car show pulling up to get judged and was sitting there Idling and two other owners of a magnaflow said, my magnaflow, 
does not sound like that. At Idle I have a real nice rumble, and when I stomp on it, its real, real , loud. Has alot of crackling but sounds good. Before cat removal and cam change, car had some nice sound, but nothing like it had now.

I have a comp XER 232/234 with LTs, no cats, and a loudmouth. If you want to make women and children run, this is your setup. I may even have a video by the end of the weekend.
