Default Exhaust setup
How would this exhaust setup be on an 05 GMC 1500 CC? Remove cats, 2 hooker aerochamber mufflers, x-pipe, then straight out the back. Sound?

If you are going with true duals on a stock or near stock engine, don't be surprised if you lose some low-end power. True duals aren't really needed unless you are making upwards of around 400 horsepower.

You can take the cats out which will give you a more aggressive sound and a little more power. Doing the x-pipe and true duals are questionable in my opinion if you are wanting performance...

I would suggest Pacesetter LT headers, Pacesetter ORY, and your choice of a single catback system...
