Ehh, those Flowmasters actually sound okay. I would recommend a true dual exhaust system from Texas Speed and Performance. Best sound and power from a catback, since it's the H pipe instead of the Y pipe.

How do you know what years have the H pipe or the Y pipe, and which of theses is better?

demonoidcreeper

dumb question i know the answer mines a Y pipe they all are unless you put H pipe on it, sorry!

Cats will be gone on friday, I wonder what it will sound like then!

demonoidcreeper

A little change in plans, leaving the cats for now because of the whole inspection crap here in texas, and saving for the headers first, and If I dont like the sound as much I know I will go with the Magna Flow Exhaust! Then going to get Ram Airhood with SLP Air intake system next, and a custome tune!

demonoidcreeper

demonoidcreeper

Quite honestly, I would just enjoy the car for right now and save money. I went the impatient route and now I want more power because I want with a mediocore build. While you're saving the money you can be doing research on LS1tech. Read some of JakeFusion's posts. He has a really great build going on for himself right now after about six months of research and talking to very knowledgeable moderators.

Here is my build that I'm working on right now. It resembles Jake's a lot, although a few items are different:

*Fast 102 Intake Manifold Ported by Tony Mamo
*Fast 102 Big Mouth Throttle Body
*Fast Toys 104mm Lid
*TSP 100mm MAF (debating on Speed Density, need to do more research)
*SLP Air Lid Plug
*Chrs1313 Ram Air w/ AC
*Fast Intake Manifold Gaskets

HEADS AND VALVETRAIN AND CAM:
*AI 243 Stage 2 Ported Heads (64cc)
*Comp Trunion Upgrade Kit for Rocker Arms
*.040" Head Gasket
*LS3 Tuned-Down Valves
*Morel 5206 Link-Bar Hydraulic Roller Lifters
*Manton Length Hardened Pushrods
*Brian Tooley Dual Valve Springs
*SNS TorqueMax Stage 3 Cam

*Yukon 4.10 Gears
*Koni Shocks (front and rear)
*MGW Short Throw Shifter
*MSD Plug Wires
*NGK Iridium Spark Plugs
*Poly Motor Mounts
*Monster Stage 2 Clutch

Exhaust:
*Kooks Long Tube Headers
*Flowmaster U-Fit H-Pipe Kit (either 2.5 or 3" depending on what my exhaust shop can work with because I will be going over the axle)
*BMR Driveshaft Safety Loop
*BMR Panhard Rod Relocation Kit
*Magnaflow 14419 Mufflers
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

This is all that I could think of. I've probably left something simple off. The cam that I listed above is a huge cam. I honestly don't mind the inconvenience. Some people do. It really comes down to your personal preference.

I'll probably have all of this together by December. It's a game of patience. Do it once, go all out and be done with it. A lot of people on here (me included) do a build and end up wanting more.

My .02. Hope it helps.

**EDIT: You have an automatic. Go with 3.73's if you choose to do this build. 4.10's are WAAAAY to low for an automatic and minus the clutch ****
