Default Need Help Deciding

I need everybodies help on deciding if i should go with the GMMG exhaust or put a whole new clutch setup in. I was going to put in the LS6 clutch kit, LS6 Hydraulic Slave Cylinder, and LS6 Master Cylinder because when i rev the car really high it wont let me shift into another gear and other little minor things but i can still drive it like normal. Most likely its just the master cylinder, but if i was going to change the master cylinder i might as well put a new clutch kit in since their going to drop the tranny. I really love the GMMG exhaust setup and i want to put that on my car as soon as possible, but im not sure if thats the right decision.

I think i would go with the clutch...... hmmmm if the clutch goes out the car will still sound good sitting still.. tough choice lol..

I hate it when that happens just when you want to spend money on your car something else breaks... oh well thats how it goes

Clutch & a cutout with a QTP that way you can have it quiet when you want & loud when you want.

You'd be amazed at what a cutout can do on a LS1 F-body. I know 1 car that got 20hp on a H&C setup & a guy that had a 43x stroker that picked up at least 25hp. It will be the best bang for buck mod you can do to your car.
