After grenading my rear end Friday night the car is going in the shop Monday. Right now I have TPIS HEADERS, NO CATS AND BORLA STARIGHT PIPE(NO MUFFLERS OR RESONATERS) I posted last week and am leaning towards the stingers to cut down on the resonance. It's so bad between 1900-2200 I cant hear my 3k watt stereo. I was thinking prt's or stingers. Who has a catless long tube set up and what cat back are you running?

Thanks

I'll make it short & sweet.

GHL

NO DRONE
NO RESONANCE

Enjoy your stereo when you want.
Enjoy the GREAT V8 muscle car sound of the GHL exhaust when you want.

Which GHL? I think there are three different ones. Remember I like loud to?

CR555

Loudest exhaust without drone = Corsa Titanium Competition.

There are no mufflers on it, how can it not have any drone?

GHL original 6" BULLETS!

Is that the half muffler like the borla stingers or is it the full muffler/

same design as the stingers but just a hair larger in diameter.

The GHL Magnums are the smaller mufflers and louder, directly comparable to the Stingers. The (original) Bullets are the larger muffler and are slightly quieter with less resonance.

I have the GHL Bullet system ith LT headers and no cats and love the sound. I have a very slight drone at exactly 1500rpm, but anywhere else it's fine. It's quite loud when I want it to be, and quiet when I want it to be too...best of both worlds IMO.

Considering what you're using now, I'd suggest the Magnums.

So it's the Magnum bullets? Nice looking ride by the way>

GHL has 2 basic lines.

Magnums - Louder, 5" dia mufflers.
Bullets - Quieter, 6" dia. mufflers.

Thanks for the compliment, I absolutely love your car and wish I could have mine sitting like that.

After I had the loudmouths installed, the resonance was pretty bad, as you've described. An x-pipe solved the problem.

I have Kooks LT headers, 3" offroad X-pipe, and B&B PRT's. There's almost no drone with the PRT's compared to the Borla Stingers they replaced.

vettethret

I actully already have the x-pipe. It was perfect before the no cats and long tubes.

vettethret

Wow. What was the difference in sound comparing the two? Did you get ride of the stingers because of the drone?

I think the GHL Magnum would be your best bet.

I wasn't crazy about the sound of the Stingers at idle. But they sounded good at WOT, not as nice as the PRTs though.
Yes, I switched to the PRT's b/c of drone. Don't get me wrong, I still hear the motor while cruising, it's just not as loud. Plus I don't get that annoying resonance that rattles your brain, it's more of a deep purr now.

My Bullets were as loud or louder as most stingers I've heard. With H&C Kooks off road X pipe my car is very loud.

I too have the GHL Bullets (6") with LT headers and they can be pretty loud. I also occassionally have a slight resonance on the highway. Seems to be temperature dependant. Colder == louder/more resonance. Before the headers... not too loud and NO resonance. So headers wake these bad boys up. They can SCREAM at WOT and be pretty reasonable around town. That being said... ALL my neighbors have commented that they hear my car now and I keep it pretty mellow in the neighborhood. I do fear what will happen if I add the S/C in the future!
