Default I want your opinion/help.....

Heres the deal, my setup is some lt pacesetter headers goin to the pacesetter ORY to gmmg exhaust. I want to keep the gmmg and the LT's. What I'm thinking bout changing is the y-pipe due to the the crazy cackling when you give it gas and also when you let off. I got the ORY for the extra horse compared to a catted y or muffler. But I'm to a point to where I would be willing to lose a little performance, for my car not to have any cackling to it. So what would you guys recommend I do? I'm thinking of goin with a catted Y-pipe (currently I have no cats) if thats your recommendation what would be a good Y to get with my setup? I'm free to any and all ideas. Thank you

Good post, I'd like to see what people have to say as well. My bassani rasps really hard from 2100-2500 if you hit the throttle hard. I've considered the cats.

you dont really lose much hp with high flow cats, maybe 5 hp. i would never go without cats because i cant stand that raspy sound.
