Default Which Exhaust

I know there have been 100's of lt1 exhaust threads, but I need a little more information than just the typical cat-back questions...

I have my z28( in sig) and its current set up is pacesetter lts, flowmaster merge, hi-flow cat, and then dynomax bullet into a dump... I really dont like the sound and want to change it, my question is what I should do for a new set up. I want to get rid of the cat, and a new muffler for sure.

What should I do, I know borla and gmmg sound great on these cars, but I kinda want true duals... what do you think?

You take them a picture of the hundreds of setups on here and say do this. There is also a dual dynomax setup in the classifieds right now for cheap

I sent a PM on that dual set up, hopefully he gets back to me, if not I think I will just take your advice and take a picture up there to them to prove that it can be done.

That looks awesome. It doesn't seem like it would be all that hard, I will call tomorrow and see what they say. The only downside is that they are the only exhaust shop for about 60 miles, so its a trip to go any where else.
