I liked everything about my Borla set up except I wasn't crazy about the tips...

It was a bit pricier than some others too...

If you're going with longtubes, do NOT get loudmouth (you'll hate it-trust me it's what I have-entirely too much interior noise)...the best I've heard with LT's and no cats is GMMG. But LM does sound good with stock manifolds, and is alot cheaper than GMMG.

Depends on if you want it loud, louder or loudest.

For me, anything louder than Hooker is a bit too loud on a daily driver.

Then it sounds like you'd like Corsa's System. It's quiet at idle, but gets mean at WOT. The Tips are very nice as well.

It just depends on what you like the sound of. You're best bet, if you havent already, is to go to a F-Body event and hear different Exhausts for yourself.

I personally like Mufflex's Systems. Not many people have them, they are just as much as Corsa and Borla maybe a little less, they sound awesome and have sweet Tips.

If I were to go with shorty headers and keep the cats in place, would a LoudMouth still sound good? I would like an agressive sounding exhaust but not to the point where it's more annoying than nice (I'm trying to get away from that whole import-exhaust sound remember )

Look into to the Mangan Flow catback, it's everything you want!

Plus it's a very good price, I miss mine.

i like my magnaflow and can't wait till i get some headers for it to liven it up even more. magnaflow isn't the loudest at idle but at WOT it is nice sounding. no raspyness so far, but i imagine with some headers and no cats it will be inevitable.

I love the way my hooker exhaust sounds the FLP LT's just add to the sweetness.

If you want classy and queit don't get the LM i have LM's and they are loud and like said b4 with the LT headers it will be very annnoying. As for going with ST headers don't even consider it. I read an article in HP pontiac mag and it had the 10 best mods and 15 worst mods for an LS1 and ST headers were one of the worst. My advice for what ever you do is research and find someone with a soundbite that could help you dicision and what ever you do go with LT's
