I have the Magnaflow paired up with LTs and it is really quiet down low and roars when you floor it. Overall, I would have to say the system sound nice, but it is a little to mellow for me at times. That is why a 3" is on the way right now from QTP...

I'm running the same setup (lts, no cat, slp lm) and i had a flowmaster with a cutout on before i switched out for the LM. Wish i didn't but o well. I'd go with the Hooker if i could do it again.

This who thread is going to be strictly opinion. With that I'll say GMMG. Not everyone has heard it in real life, but those who have really know why its worth the cash.

www.ls1sounds.com (for sound clips and videos) if you like the loudmouth, convert it to the borlamouth (borla xr-1 race muffler) or dynomouth (dynomax bullet) all you gotta do is swap them with the resonator. dynomax is the cheapest but borla sounds the best.

Re: whats the best sounding cat back w/ lts

i went with 2.5" duals w/ x-pipe and bullets. it sounded real mean with bullets, the sound was real deep and throaty. or if you want something louder, just get rid of the bullets and run it with straight pipes and turndowns after the x-pipe.
