Default Loud exhaust?

Hey all, longtubes and ory goes on tomorrow, cant wait. I have a cutout and will be running it open most of the time. i only close it to roll in the driveway at 3 am so i dont wake my parents. i didnt want the stock catback cuz i didnt want it to sound like a ***** even for those 4-5 seconds. i bought a hooker muffler. houw loud is it with an ory and lts compared to stock exhaust with a cutout(what i have now).

sorry its a dumb ? i just wanna get an idea of how loud it will be.

I heard a hooker system guy said he had LTs and an ORY and it sounded extremely quiet at idle and low rpm. I dunno I wasnt impressed, when he mashed on it sounded like a LM. He couldve been lying though.

yeah, i hear that slp dual dual, hooker and magnaflow are the quiet ones. i am searching for a set-up as well and have read that the hooker is quiet at low rpms but screams at WOT with very little rasp. im actualy debating between the mangaflow and hooker myself, only cause slp disscontinued the dual dual(which i wanted). good luck with your choice. either way, your going to love it. just put the cutout on it and you will be happy.

At WOT your ears will bleed with LT's and ORY.
