No. The loudest exhaust would be LT headers and then nothing else. Next up would be LTs, no cats and true duals dumped under the car with no mufflers (or something like a 10-series Flowmaster, which is almost no muffler at all). After that would be LTs, ORY, and a loudmouth-style catback with the LM resonator removed. Next would be LTs, ORY and a complete loudmouth system.

Lol I know how you feel, just got a cutout with my ORY, not really as raspy as I thought just too loud, almost hurts my ears while driving. I capped my cutout today and it sounded weird hearing the exhaust come out the back like it used to, I kinda miss it:/ You should try a LM2 or maybe even Texas speed rumbler exhaust, they still sound good and are pretty loud but not as raspy as the LM1

i was looking for a cat-back system a few months ago.after alot of reading other post i went with the hooker cat-back and i am extremly happy.it's quite when cruising and loud when you get in it.for the price i figured if i didn't like the sound i could buy a magnaflow muffler and put it with this system but when i heard it wouldn't change a thing.

Anyone tried the OBX stainless catback? looks like a corsa clone. I had OBX SS lont tubes and was very happy with them. The OBX catback is only like $300 plus shipping. Can't find any youtube vids and I'm real curious.

Volume-wise, there is a HUGE difference. Although I don't know exactly what the design is, from every audio clip and video demo I've heard, if you have an LM1 "muffler" on your car, you may as well not have a muffler at all.

I run stock cats then instead of the factory muffler I installed an LM II in it's place.
Sounds perfect; able to listen to tunes without any major noise.
When I hit the go fast pedal, it comes to life.
Idles like an F body should.
