hooker catback
idk, i have mine and don't think its shitty. definitly got louder after a good 400 miles on it, my only fitment issue was a vibration on the passenger side tailpipe which was fixed by a good shove to the left... sounds mint, real quiet at idle and cruisin around its throaty, but opens up good when you rip on it... i got a cutout i have yet to install but the hooker flows good and is quiet, and the cutout will give me the good balance of how badly i want to **** people off/how quiet i want to be... by the way magnaflow catbacks sound like ****!!

I wouldn't go as far as to say that "magnaflow catbacks sound like ****"-I think they are similar to the hooker at idle to midrange, and are a bit louder and raspier at WOT. Both setups are a fine choice and are generally well respected in the LS1 world.

Dude, that thing sounds awesome! Volume with tone-old-school sounding. Mine would def. benefit from LT's and a cam. Nice to see good people abusing thier F-bodies the way that God intended...
