If youre looking at it from a pure performance angle, Kooks SS LTs and true duals. If you're looking at it from a sound angle, then shame on you because there's a huge thread already posted in the forum all about that.

They sound awesome on LT1s, the only exhaust notes I like better are the 2OTL and true duals.
