Default Exhaust

Hey guys, I just recentely purchased a 98 Trans Am stock. I want to put a performance exhaust on it. I had a Borla on my previous one and loved it. Any ideas for this exhaust and anyone know of any cheaper ones or used ones? Thanks,
Blake

TSP Rumbler, cheap ($199 without tips), good sound (Little louder than stock @idle, deep tone, does have some drone @1800-2k), easy as hell to install (took all of 10 min after stock exhaust removal)

The best advice that I could give you is to go to LS1Sounds.com and listen to the various setups they have on there. The loudmouth sounds good on stock manifolds and is pretty cheap, so my vote goes there.

yeah, but i would only get manifolds if u dont plan on upgrading manifolds or headers, etc., bc it starts to sound bad. i would do Long tube headers first, and then go for exhaust, since stock headers are too restrictive, u need some LT's before you go exhaust, IMO.

Search. Check out LS1 sounds. Read the stickies in this and the external engine forums. Read JRP's stickies.
