Is this too much?

I was wondering if headers with 3in true duals and x pipe with no cats and bullet mufflers is too much for a bolt on 98 ls1 camaro?

Nope, it'll be just fine. Loud as sin, but fine.

I would skip the cats and use a muffler that will reduce sound more without hurting flow. Something like a 5" round Magnaflow or Borla XR-1. Unless you want it super loud, in which case what you have is fine.

Good to go, bud. But yeah, you will turn some heads. It shouldn't break anything though which is always a plus.

if youre worried about sound, go with 3" moroso spiral flows. I have longtubes and true duals and the car sounds decent at idle but not loud, but when you go WOT its like the devil himself is screaming down the highway at you.

yep you can always quite it down for less than making it louder. And this is the way most people go. Loud as hell car when your young, but as you age you start to quite it down!
