Magnaflow CAT back system?

Anybody tried these or know anything about these CAT systems?
I am not affiliated with this auction in any way. Just want to find out if they are any good. The price seems too good.

That's for the L98, they don't make a cat back for the LT1, not that I've found anyway.

I have that system and its for 86-91 I believe. That price is pretty good though, but I believe that hot exhaust sells it for $435 delivered after forum discount.
They do sell the mufflers for your car, you have to use existing Y pipe.

The magnaflows for the LT1 are only the mufflers, magnaflow claims the stock exhaust is so good the only real improvement to be had is in the mufflers and maybe an x pipe. I got mine from preformance peddler for $305 to my door and it only took about 3 days!

I was told by the guy who did my exhaust that the pipes on the 92 and up Vettes are really good (Gary Cook of PFE). The guy really knows his stuff. So the only thing I did was by an x-pipe and the mufflers. They welded everything in place including the LT1 tips for $275. I think I got a real good deal. Normally what he did would have cost $350ish.

Thanks for the replies guys. I currently run muffler elims. Actually I had a friend that works at Midas cut the stock cans off and then weld two new extensions in thier place witht the stock tips. It sounds pretty good, but when I was at Carlisle just a few weeks ago, I heard a lot of great exhaust notes. I would love to have a borla or corsa system like those I saw in Carlsile. I thought this Magnaflow might be a less expensive route, but I guess not.
