Magnaflow! Looks & sounds great, build quality is top notch, it's cheap, and will LAST. Don't go aluminized regardless your choice. Go stainless right off the bat and be done with it.

Anyone have a clip of the Hooker? I hear NOTHING but good things from that cat... I heard the magnaflow on the LS1... sounds sick, but never actually heard a clip off a LT1. Any clips available?

anything on an LS1 will sound better on an LT1.

I think the LS1 sounds sick as hell though... unless I can find some sound clips to prove me wrong. :-)

Put it this way, my car through a hooker catback is louder than my buddies LS1 with a cutout. Granted he has cats and manifolds, but still..... mine is through a full exhaust.

I personally like the sound of the Borla. One positive of it is that you have the plates so you can change the sound of your dumptruck.

True. I just cant understand why anyone would pay that much for a catback. The only borla i really like is my buddies. He got new tips on his (im not a fan of the "intercooled" tips) as well as an electric cutout on the plate. ITs badass.

My Z came with a DynoMax and as much as some people tell me they like the sound, I think it's pretty damn quiet. Considering tossing the SLP Loudmouth on it. Got it on my SS and I loooove it. Some people are going to say it's raspy or what, but that's what makes it unique, I think. I wouldn't trade it for nothing.

Yeah the Borla is a bit pricey, but mine was on my car when I bought it.
