Default LT's and Flowmaster

Can anyone tell me how it sounds. LT's, no cats, and 80 series flowmaster. Does sound good, bad, too loud, raspy?
Someone let me know.

Definately sounds good to me. No drone at all. I think it is very loud but not annoying. I get compliments all of the time. I had a bullet on for about two weeks and it sounded like **** to me without cats so that is why I put my 80 series on. So when I want to annoy people I just uncap my cutout.

I just put this exact setup on my car this weekend. ORY and Hooker headers. I was not impressed with the sound. I'm likely going to have a bullet muffler put into the I-pipe here in the near future.
Currently, it's raspy and sounds "tinny" like I have a coffee can for a muffler.

I have just installed Long Tubes, Off Road Y-Pipe, and Flowmaster catback about a month ago. Needless to say I am taking the Flowmaster back off and ordering a borla. It just sounds very weak and raspy. Not what you would expect as I have the exact same setup on my 94 Z28 and it sounds very deep and loud. However there is no drone in the car on the 99 Z28. If you are not wanting something really loud it would probably do you ok but for the money I have heard a hooker catback and it sounded better imo. I had the flowmaster on about a week before I installed long tubes and it sounded great on the stock system with cats.
