I had long tube headers, dual 3" exhaust with cherry bomb extreme mufflers on my 92 c1500 that had a built 5.3 in it. I'll see if I can post the video some how.

Yeah but nothing crazy. 5.3 bored .030", stock heads ported/milled, forged flat top pistons, voodoo cam 228/228 112, edelbrock intake and carb. That truck no longer exists though. Burnt to the ground June 2nd 2012.

Flowmaster Stainless Super 44.
I do not have an LS. I have about 400hp and i love the way these things sound.
I have Dynatech 1-5/8 to 1-3/4 full length headers to a flowmaster mandrel bent 2-1/2" ststem to Super 44s and tail pipes.
The flowmaster kit was 817158.
I wanted borlas, but I am super pleased with the Flowmasters.
They are not obnoxious in the car, but scares kids and old ladies up to about 100 feet....LOL
Here are some videos. Everything dated 2013 has this setup.

I know this may be a bit controversial but out of all the different exhaust systems i've had or seen on builds, I am SO impressed with the sound of Bassani exhaust systems.
Worth considering.

Long tube headers, 2.5" Flowmaster H-Pipe system with Magnaflow mufflers. Deep mellow classic car sound at idle, rowdy on the gas and under WOT I was told "Your car sounds like WAR!!!"
I'll see if I can get a video clip. 6.0l LQ9, Vic Jr. Intake with a healthy cam.

100% agree. Had them on my bone stock 05 GTO and they sounded wonderful. I'm also a fan of Hooker AeroChambers, that's what I have on my Cutlass now.

I hope to get mine fired up in the next week or two, but I went with Kooks LTs, 3" Spintech Xpipe, and 3" Spintech Sportsman mufflers (dumped). Cant wait to hear it!!! :D

I have the same set-up on my '68 and love the agressive sound they put out. There's nothing that beats the Pypes violators if you want a mean sound and get noticed everywhere you go!!

Have to agree. I have them on my '05 GTO and love them... wish they were a tad louder actually. What is controversial about them?

I guess because it's not one of the more known popular exhaust systems. Love em. Looking to convert my other systems over.

By chance do you have another video with cruise & idle? Sounds great at WOT, but I'd like to hear them at non "scare the neighbors" pace as well.

This setup sounds great too. Reasonably tame at idle/cruise and a nice howl at WFO.

I've had borla xr1, flomaster original 40s and corsa sports
Borla XR1 - sounded good. Weren't too loud or too quiet. Just perfect and sounded great when you get on it. However, at idle I did not like how they sounded. They muffled the cam too much and you couldn't really here that chop coming through the tail pipes
Flow master - about the same sound level as borla. Had that classic muscle car sound but again at idle they muffled the cam sound and I didn't get that nice idle I was looking for
Corsa Sport - bought these for a 2013 mustang v6. They sound awesome. They have that idle sound I like and sounds like a new Vette. I'm running 2.5" exhaust with pipe and it now sounds really good. Took me a while and a few tries at the exhaust shop but I'm now done. I'm hoping there will be no drone with these as the corsas are drone free and both other mufflers droned really bad.

Used em on a couple builds and was very impressed, sorry no audio clip to share.
I'm currently running straight 3" open exhaust from headers, sounds great and mean but when I mash the pedal it gets REAL loud, I'm planning to put spintechs on in the very near future

Here is my sound clip for comparison. Being in a shop makes it louder than it actually is, but its a pretty rowdy sound1
-Carb'd junkyard 5.3 and a TSP 224R cam
-True dual 3" mandrel to Thrush (flowmaster chinese cousin) dumped at the axle

The car sounds legit but that feelow in the red rocking flip flops in a shop environment is far from it.

Wouldn't mind quiting down the headers and mufflers some. Would ceramic coating the headers do much for sound? Love the way it sounds when getting out it but would like it alittle quitier driving around town
