Hooker catback
Looking for opinionson this setup on a stock LS1. I don't like the dual dual tips. But that is easy to change. Sound is what I am mostly interested in.

I've seen some videos with Hooker catbacks. Sounded pretty good in my opinion but the last time I checked, the setup wasn't stainless steel and therefore will not last as long.
Very popular catback systems with members on this board are the Loudmouth, Borla & Corsa.97 Trans Am A4 more or less stock (Mods: WS6 Ram Air with Fernco & K&N, 12 disc CD changer, power antenna, SLP Fan Switch, LS1 Aluminum DS, Borla Cat back, McCord power plate, Spohn tower brace, Sirius, HID fog lights)

I have not heard it in person but it gets good reviews. As posted above Corsa and Borla are kind of top of the heap here (expensive though). I would add the GMPP system to the list as well.Silver 02 WS-6, 6 speed, Corsa cat-back, SLP lid, K&N filter, BMR STB, !CAGs, Lou's short stick, MSD wires, MTI "Hammer" cam, ASP underdrive pulley, Hooker LTs, Hooker ORY, Comp 918s, TR pushrods, UMI Sfcs, UMI LCAs, NGK TR55s, Hotchkis springs

GMPP = GM Performance Parts. They make a chambered muffler that sounds really good. Never heard of V-Force!Silver 02 WS-6, 6 speed, Corsa cat-back, SLP lid, K&N filter, BMR STB, !CAGs, Lou's short stick, MSD wires, MTI "Hammer" cam, ASP underdrive pulley, Hooker LTs, Hooker ORY, Comp 918s, TR pushrods, UMI Sfcs, UMI LCAs, NGK TR55s, Hotchkis springs

Thanks for the help guys. Last night I got to hear the Hooker for real. One on a stock with lid LS/1 and the other was very heavily moded. It is the sound for me. He is changing the system on the moded car. Exhaust is 6 months old and looks like it just came out of the box. He offered it to me for a price that I absolutely couldn't turn down.
So in 2 weeks I will have my exhaust.
