Guys w/ LTs please read/help.

Hey fellas,
I'm waiting on Jet Hot's version of long tubes with cats and Y-pipe.
Before, I had my mind on some FLPs.
To make a long story short....I don't want to make the mistake of changing the exhaust note that I have now for the worst. I read somewhere that someone added long tubes and their exhaust became high pitched??!!
My car sounds badazz w/ the SLP shorties and GMMG. I want the additional power of longtubes but not at the price of getting an exhuast note that I don't like. Do you think LTs would be an improvement in sound quality with my set up.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

Tim

I don't think your exhaust sound will change that much if you leave the cats on. It's when you remove the cats it gets kind of raspy. I only really noticed that my exhaust got louder inside the car after I added my long tubes, I couldn't tell much of a difference outside.

Thanks for the replies fellas.
You both have some "TIGHT" rides.
Robbie, your exhaust sounds great.
