i've heard a friend's LT1 car with mac headers, ypipe, offroad pipe, and a full open borla...... on a stock cam.

it didn't sound too good But yeah, it was super loud...
Hell yeah it sounds good! (Although I still have my cat). Headers with a cutout sounds raw. If you have the manifolds, it will sound like crap.

Your best bet is to get a cutout and put it where the cat was. Then you get a shop to custom make you a piece to close it Have them make it so there's a different amount of exhaust excaping from each piece. Each cover should have a different sound because of the differing amounts of exhaust going through. Have them make you like 2 or 3 and mix and match and see the sound you like.

Thumbs up

Probably the best mod for sound (and horsepower) are Hooker LT's. I will never forget the sound the first time I drove it after the install. Now I have the Mufflex y-pipe and 4" Mufflex exhaust. I have the best sounding car around.. And it's loud..
