I for one am looking for performance upgrades for my own personal enjoyment while driving, not to be loud and have everyone else hear what I am driving..

Just my two cents..
It just seemed to me that you were too worried about noise to even venture the headers route. Personaly I like the old school muscle car rumble over the loud cutout noise.

Brian you only have hooker catback and LT's? no cam?? Cause thats exactly the sound I don't want lol..


Check out http://lsx.streetfire.net/recentvide...f900ea18a8.htm ... He says he has a loudmouth with slp performance package II.. Does that include headers? If so, arent they supposd to be retarded loud? Cause I think his setup sounds good. thats the sound i'm trying to get!

Could it be that one is tuned and the other is not?

Loud is not a prob for me, its that motorcycle "popping" noise that just makes my skin crawl lol.
