I don't know what to tell you man... my setup is teh same as your, cept for the cat back and it's loud as all freaking hell. Perhaps you should give it a little more gas or not shift as soon. My car doesn't really start producing the sound until about 2000 rpms. And if you can't hear the sound you might not want to blast your music or hav your ipod going

are there any catbacks besides LM that actually amplify the sound and are louder than open cutout? sorry if its stupid to ask. thanks again

I also didn't feel so much better performance when I installed the LTs
My setups is Pacesetter LTs (coated), ORY-pipe, Magnaflow CB, a lid and ported TB.
I put some nuts between the cross-brace-member thingy by the Y-pipe to get some clearance. But it still vibrates as hell under the drivers seat where it's hitting the body. Any ideas to put in between? Heat-resistance...
