yea that car sounds bad ***...good luck with the setup
KooK's 1-7/8" SS Headers.
Custom 3" SS Y-pipe with Dynatech SS bullet cats after the collectors.
Dual 3" DMH electric cut-outs after the cats.
Corsa Catback exhaust. (best looking tips... I know, subjective)
About as good as you can get for an exhaust setup!
The cut-outs go behind the cats in order to reduce the muddy sound of open headers. I've ran the cut-outs in both locations (before and after the cats), didn't lose any noticable power.
Nice and quiet with the dumps closed... flip a switch and it's loud as hell. Picked up +13 rwhp with the dumps open.
All stainless... it will last forever! Buy once, cry once!

My setup is Pacesetter LT's and custom 3" TD's with dynomax bullets. don't be afraid to go with TD's if its done right you don't lose much ground clearance (its not like these cars go offroad anyways) and its cheaper than a y pipe and a catback.
heres my car its also cammed so a stock LT1 won't sound like this.
