LT selection question These are the three I am looking at putting on my car size being 1 3/4". Stainless steel is my choice because of simplicity and I am basically a lazy bastard that doesn't want to worry it for many, many years. I will also be using a catted Y-pipe from the company that I choose. Please vote and if you would like to also include personal experience (positive/negative) from your choice that would be great. Did I miss a good option in stainless? If so post up an option! Thanks all.
Install was straight up, its stainless and the headers can be bought w/ excellent Y pipe catted or not. I didn't go to Y pipe route, I went duals... 2.5" collectors to my 2.5" duals were excellent match.
Kooks since they are great quality and have a stainless steel Catted Y-pipe also. I didn't want to be Stainless headers/ mild or aluminized steel Y-pipe/ then back to a stainless steel catback. I wanted the whole kit-n-kaboodle to be stainless.

Thanks, I was leaning toward them (QTP) initially and going to see if I could work a deal at the the same for a electric cutout. My only hold up is if it does not work with the adjustable TA from UMI. Then I saw all the good reviews of SW and of course Kooks always have had great reviews as well.

What kind of Torque Arm do you have? Tranny mount or Tunnel? The Tunnel mount that fits the stock exhaust will also fit Kooks LTs and Y pipe as well and that's it. No other longtube will fit. Tranny mount should fit everything.

Tunnel mount and they have the option of another version. I am waiting on Ryan to give me a definate answer on what will work depending on the headers I choose (2201 or 2203). Thanks for the sound clip.

Camero (sig)? OK sorry don't ban or restrict, just found it funny. What about all this AR talk that I have been reading? I just want to make the most informed decision.

For stainless headers and a good catted y, Kooks and AR get the best reviews.
