Default How well will this exhaust set-up work?

I don't want the exhaust to get much louder w/ the cutout closed so I am thinking of just going w/ the hooker aero-chamber muffler and 3" electric QTP cutout while keeping everything else stock.

In the future I would like to get coated pacesetter headers and catted y-pipe.

Anyone foresee any problems with the setup up or can anyone make better recommendations? People talk about the McCord cutout and the DHM cutout but what pipe do you get? (the small y-pipe that connects to the muffler and electric cutout) and how much $ will that save me?

thanks,
matt

LTs+ORY+Hooker=Nice overall sound. My fav. setup next to duals. Its still going to sound aggressive (esp. with a cutout) and tame at idle. I think youll be pleased.
