  • Need HELP from fellow members!

    I need your guys/gals help. I'm looking to get a catback exhaust but can't decide on which one and was wondering if you guys could help. Im sure people on here have various brands and I wanted to hear them in person if possible. It would also be best if you didnt have other performance parts on (headers, cam etc) but will listen to anyone willing to let me hear their exhaust. Also if you have any input on which exhaust you personally think is the best bang for your buck it would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    Last week Larry and his crew at Speed Inc. in Schaumburg installed a Borla S-Type cat back system for me and I am EXTREMELY impressed with the sound. Mind you,it has Kooks headers and high-flow cats in front of it but I have done alot of research and I can not find many people that are not happy with the Borla systems..
    I had SLP Loudmouth II axlebacks on that Speed removed during my build that I now have for sale. They sounded very nice also. Gave my SS/LS3 a low growl without being overbearing. For a cheaper alternative I highly recomend those. If somebody wanted mine I would let them go for $400.00. They have 550 miles on them.
    If we were closer I would be more than happy to let you hear my car.

        Whichever you get, add some No Weeds diverters to it, then you have a volume control on your exhaust -- I was sold after hearing the power-added Nickey Chicago modified cars with them!

          Whos Jerry? And from the online vids I have been listening to I think the Magnaflow is first on my list right now. Ive also listened to an exhaust from Solo Performance that I was pretty impressed with.

            Thanks for the offer but I'm really looking at a catback system. I'm sure you will have no problem selling those at that price.

              Not a problem I would have kept them on as I really do like their sound but like you,I wanted a cat back system.

                Please keep in mind several tests have shown zero hp gain from cat back systems. Basically the only thing you're changing is the tone.

                I've got Kooks longtubes & hi - flow cats along with the SLP LM II and layed down 422 at the wheels. The factory mid pipes are all still in place.

                For $400, you may be better off jumping on the muffler system and spend the extra cash on another mod.

                  Jetsco, that car sounds amazing. It is cammed and full exhaust thought.

                    I'm think about to pull the trigger on a magnaflow catback street series that I liked and found at an amazing deal with free shipping on Camaro5.

                      I did it. I decided to go with the Magnaflow 2.5" Street Series Cat-Back. Got the one I wanted at much lower price than I thought for this system.

                        Probably my favorite system for the Gen 5 Camaro's. A close 2nd is the Corsa Sport with the X0-Crossover pipe. The Magnaflow has the best tone but at WOT the Corsa owns. We just installed one about 3 days ago an 2010 SS, It actually gave me goose bumps. Enjoy your Magnaflow you will love it!

                        Thank You,
                        Eugene

                          We got the cat back magnaflow with the huge tailpipes, not sure if they are 2inch or what but they are huge. We love the way it sounds.

                              Just got back from having Pete install my exhaust. Im really happy that it has the deep tone that I was looking for. Much better than the quiet stock exhaust.
