Exhaust Build opinions for L9H...
Okay...here is my plan...ARH LT's without cats, QTP cutouts directly after headers, Y-pipe to 3.5" piping and Corsa muffler...is it better to run 2 cutouts after headers or 1 after Y...and which Corsa series would be best recommended for performance...plans for blower in the future, so I'm looking to make it pretty "free flowing"...
PS...already have the ARH LT's...no other parts purchased yet...

Catless LTs through a corsa are too loud for a daily driver IMO. Save the thousand dollars on the corsa setup and buy a couple magnaflows to bring the noise down. Also, without cats I doubt a cutout is going to improve flow enough to add much power, so I'd recomend only buying one if you still want it for the volume control.

Oh...and it's not technically a DD...I bought it in Feb. 2010 and I just rolled 12,000 miles a few days ago...I am keeping it street/strip setup though so there is a such thing as Too Loud...

I loved my corsa with LTs and no cats, but it was a tad loud...if it were me, id get the touring muffler to keep it toned down a hair and run a single cut out in front of the muffler when you want it loud. Also, the only thing that pisses me off about corsa besides not wanting to sell mufflers individually is their obsession with 3" piping...if they would make their gas truck mufflers in a 3.5 or 4" pipe setup, id already have bought another one. Single 3" just isnt enough for some setups, which is why i got rid of my corsa and picked up a couple 4" borla's.

You are right...I love the sound now without the resonator...but I have a small hole at the bottom rear of the factory muffler and it seems to be getting bigger!! Gunna need to change it or weld a patch...

Itill have the resonator, it is fine...so maybe I put the borla on, if I think it's too loud, I just throw the resonator on!!
