the cheapest way find a Y-pipe that matches to the stock SLP exhaust you have. I think TSP carries them. Now IMO i think f-bodies were supposed to have dual exhaust, so something like the TSP true dual would work or a custom system(not so feasible with your budjet probably).

Either way I would do a lot of research and try and be absolutely sure what you like before buying. there are many people on this forum that have purchased 3-5 different exhaust systems before finding the one they like. So I would say find people in your area and listen to their cars along with videos online to help in your choice.
