ok cool because i talked to a few people with 1 7/8 Lts and catted y and have ALOT of rasp with their magnaflows, but ur car seems to have little to none.
Im not sure about his car, but mine is QUIETER with my hookers and this y-pipe than with factory manifods and cats...and the cats werent gutted either. It has almost no rasp and sounds great at 4000RPM's.
At cruise its pretty tame.
EDIT:
Twitch, you mind posting some pics of your setup with the car on the ground to see the clearance? I just want to compare it to mine, if you get a chance to snap some pics of it.
I can post pics of mine if someone wants to see this y hooked up to hooker headers as well.

yeah i can post some pics, ill do it a little later today when im done relaxing haha. ive been meaning to do it for a while i just keep on forgetting to.
im guessing the better y merge on y pipe helped make it quieter? hmm
Im not sure man, but I know the interior drone thats famous with flowmaster mufflers is gone and makes it that much more fun to drive. I didnt have a problem with it before, but now I can hear my stereo even better !

with my magnaflow with stock manifolds it seems like around 1400-1600 rpm at light throttle it sounds like theres drone but once i hit about 2000 it sounds idk how to discribe it like it gets quiter and louder at the same time like basically the tone gets better lol but its not as loud as 1400 rpm
Sounds great. Considering the same setup. What did the LT's and Y-pipe cost?
when i bought the lpps thye were 500 shipped. im not sure if they are the same price or not, im sure they are. the y pipe i got a special deal on since i was "testing" it out my car since no one has tried it on lpp headers before but i do believe the catted y is 350.
Best of both worlds now, eh, twitchtwice? Nice mellow sounding idle and refined/roaring WOT with the Magnaflow. And obnoxious loud and screaming WOT with the cutout. Good call. Sounds good, man.

yeah i loved the magnaflow already. and now with the cutout its amazing. i was a little worried i wouldnt like the cutout but i love it.
Good thread OP, gives me some hope that my junk will sound good but behave. I have a similar setup that will be going on this weekend, plus a mid size cam. I am going for the best of both worlds also

thanks, thats what i made this thread for. and yes, this setup is the best of both worlds.
hey twitch so stock cam, lpp headers, tsp catted y, and magnaflow, correct, and you still like it? drone? cuz i had and older slp loudmouth catback and y and got rid of it because the drone and vibrations were so bad i would get headaches driving this thing, now with the maggie and slp y no drone no headaches. I am considering the lpp headers and their ory with my magnaflow.....i just dont want that damn drone/vibration, but i think that should be solved with their new mounting points! would your recommend this setup? thanks! the videos sound awesome, so................

i dont have any drone at all, even with the cutout open, but remember i have cats, so i cant tell you what a ORY sounds like. i wouldnt hessitate the reccomend my setup. and right now LPP's are on sale along with their y pipe
